Made in Preston – first post

It’s just another blog on the wall.  Made in Preston, including the surrounding area in Lancashire and the North West of England.

Linked to the website www.madeinpreston.co.uk

The website started mainly about aircraft and buses. Soon it got a bit of football, Preston North End. Then a bit of history and food. Then instead of deeper it got broader, spreading out into the region. Where will it end?

So this blog is a bit of an experiment with the technology of a blog and to add some topical ramblings of my own. Although the website does have a few of those already, particularly on the Preston North End page.

Anyway I’ve had a bit of a mission as I’ve never been happy about those buses not being made in Leyland. Then there are the aircraft, they are still made around here.  Making things is what we’re all about. Is man meant to sit in front of a computer screen? In fifty thousand years we’ll be all head and no body, if Darwin is correct. He probably is, but I’d think some marauding barbarians or maybe robots will appear and trample on them before that happens. So lets celebrate a bit of made in……….
