Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"
I thanked him and went on my Merry way!
RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015!
"The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth."
Officially one of the 119 Mugs used by the club:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "Along Rainford Road about half a mile from the mini roundabout in Billinge there is a road on your right, it's a small road that leads up to what was Crookhurst Farm. Just Park at the bottom of that Road (closest to Rainford Road)
Then walk up the small road towards the farmhouse. At the farmhouse go left and just follow the road up to Billinge Hill, some great views on your left hand side. When you reach the top of the path go right and 200 yards later go left up to the Hill itself. If it's a clear day the views are stunning. You can see as far South as Wales, North up to Blackpool, East to Manchester and Derbyshire, and West to Liverpool and and the Wirral.
From the Hill I would walk though the woods and that will eventually bring you out on Crank Road. When you get there turn right and you will come to The Holt Arms
Anyone else can't get the Theme to Last of the Summer Wine out of their heads?

| There's also the Colliers on 't other side ot hill, in Kings Moss.
Another cracking Real Ale pub, which is well worth a visit.
However, due to the location, it's much more biased towards the stains contingent

Nick left the pub a few weeks ago
