Barnoldswick

Did anyone else spot the electronic speed indicator (I am sure there is a much more technical phrase for it than that!) on the road out of Barnoldswick yesterday? It showed a smiley face if you were doing less than 30 miles an hour and a sad face face if you were going faster than that (erm........so someone else told me Mr. Policeman). It amused me anyway.

Trivia alert 1: Did you know that Barnoldswick is one of the longest place names in the UK that does not have any repeating letters in its name?

Triva alert 2 : Barnoldswick is often cited as being one of the largest towns in the UK not to be served by A-roads!
