We’ve had some lovely weather so far in Ramsbottom for this year’s 1940’s weekend, the highlight of which was the flyover by the Spitfire.

Not only is it 1940s weekend but it’s also half term next week and with that in mind I’ve decided to throw together some options if you’re stuck for ideas with the family this week. If you have no responsibility for any children, you can pretty much do what you want anyway so make your own list.

It would be great to see your photos if you do manage to do any of these things. This is Rammy is the major social media networks so sharing them to This is Rammy on Twitter or Facebook would get them seen by me. I love getting suggestions from you too so if you have any other things you like to do over half term I’d love to hear them.

Welcome to another episode of This is Rammy, your weekly source for all things Ramsbottom related. Happy Easter! All going well this was released at 10am on Sunday as usual, however with the clocks doing that stupid thing they still do it could have been 9am.

We had some lovely weather on Good Friday with lots of people heading up Holcombe Hill for the yearly egg rolling event, followed by some blustery and chilly weather on Saturday. If you’ve been up nice and early for the church service on Holcombe Hill led by Andy too, then thanks for joining me, however I expect you’ve probably slept in, what with the clocks changing.

A very wet Tuesday morning saw me visiting the Eagle and Child to have a chat with Eve Townson and Glen Duckett.

If you’ve not heard of the Eagle and Child before, they are a multi-award winning family dining pub situated overlooking Ramsbottom.

Providing training and experience for many young adults; helping them learn a trade whilst building up their confidence in the hospitality industry. Similar to what Jamie Oliver did with Fifteen back in 2002, Glen Duckett is doing here in Ramsbottom.

This week has been terrible, a terrible week of weather! Even this weekend it’s been a rare occasion for it to have stopped raining.

Hopefully you’ve not been too negatively affected by the weather. I saw lots of photos of flooded roads, but not too many of flooded houses. I think we all probably saw that stranded Ice Cream van. Who’s buying Ice Cream from a van in November?!

World Book Day at Ramsbottom Library

March 8, 2015 by Lee Leave a Comment

Last Thursday it was World Book Day at Ramsbottom Library.

You’ve all heard the saying, “Never judge a book by it’s cover” well Ramsbottom Library, along with all Libraries in Bury put together a very clever idea using just some brown paper packing to combat this.

The idea? Bag-a-book, which is?

Take one book, identify it’s reader age, put it into a brown paper bag, and label it with the age. That’s it. Could contain Wizards, could contain Fairies, who knows.

That’s how great this idea is, it’s SO simple, yet ties in to mystery and mystique before you’ve even got the book home.

I hope all those children who took part in this gave the books a chance, World Book Day is a great time to remember your local libraries, and Ramsbottom Library is a great place full of books and souvenirs from around Ramsbottom.

You can find it on Carr Street, about 200 meters past the Urn and just past the Doctors.
