Got up early to pack and tidy up. Off to Leigh, west of Manchester, for no better reason than it' within an easy drive of the Turton Tower Woodland Cafe that gets advertised on Radio Caroline so often.

I'm in The Greyhound Hotel, Leigh. First and second impressions were not good. The pub of the same name has a notice saying it's closed until further notice. The building has a distinctly uncared for look about it. But it' clean. However when I flushed the loo the bathroom floor got wet. And the bathtub had some strange plastic layer stuck to it. Presumable the enamel was damaged. But the plastic was all torn and tatty. Luckily when I complained bout the water on the bathroom floor I was given another room with a better bathroom and bath. It's a bit of a shame that the place is so run down because with a bit of maintenance it would be just as good as any Travelodge or Premier Inn. The actual rooms are clean and the bathroom in mine is in good condition with a bath big enough for two. te bed is also comfortable.
