Whilst I appreciate it's xmas and retailers peak time the town centre was absolutely rammed when myself and the Mrs did a bit of shopping last week , I couldn't believe how busy it was .
I was told that coach trips from all over the North are now coming to the town which is an extra boost to the town's economy .
Long may it continue .
