WALKING down Newport Street from the bus/rail interchange you find Pharmac. Is it a rainwear establishment?

It’s across from a select bargains type of shop, as are so many others in this area.

Don’t get me started about the trees — they seem to have had a drastic trim. You won’t get these on the Champs Elysees.

Further on, a phone shop is the solitary occupant of the former building on the left.

If Fred Dibnah looked the other way he would be disgusted with the static machinery display.

Has Bolton gone to the dogs? I rest my case.
