    Fings things to do in Barrow - are there any?

    About to start a 6 monther in Barrow-in-Furnace. I've done some googling but can't seem to find anything happening in that area, other than some organised run on Walney Isle.... There's not even a holiday Inn express nearby?!

    I've heard Barrow is the cul-de-sac of the UK, but surely there must be something up there?

    Fck me, you got the tulipty end of a stick.

    I'd take up crack cocaine as a hobby. Everyone else there does.

      Ok, first, buy an orange, a bin bag and a Doors album.

      When you arrive at your accomodation, strip off, put the orange in your mouth and fashion a mini skirt out of the bin bag. Then put the Doors album on and stand on a sturdy chair directly underneath a light fitting. Remove the light bulb and coil the flex around your neck.

      The rest is up to you really

          I wish you luck. Its the arse end of nowhere and makes Sellafield a nice place to be. The only thing going for it is that the commute to Sellafield is worse.
          merely at clientco for the entertainment

              That's how you distinguish between REAL contractors and wannabe types.

              Anyone who knows that punternet exists is the real deal

                Oh well, I'd better start running then.

                Great news about the chip shop... do they do chips and curry sauce, I wonder?

                As for the orange, plastic bag and a rope suggestion - I'm a lady, my name is not Michael!

                    Fook... I know a few ex-pats from BiF, seems to be somewhere they swear they will never ever think of going back to
