Morning chaps,
I have a flagged area that is in need of a few rebedding and repairing and the whole area needs repointing.
Anyone out there know any recommendations for this type of work, in the Pendle area?
Cheers

Not something I really get involved with, but this is a good starting point.

The only tip I can offer is get a recommendation from friends - relatives who have actually used a contractor/ builder. There’s some excellent builders out there but it’s not easy finding the good ones, they’re usually booked up. Good luck though.

A song about the death of a big, no MASSIVE club - to the tune of that santa Claus sung that Michael Jackson (not our one) crucified by squarking out of tune...

He always talks trash,
He's not very thin
He'll take all your cash
And leave your team in the bin
Allerdyce is coming to town
Allerdyce is coming to town
Allerdyce is taking Leeds down.

Sorry, that was meant to be on the death songs thread.
