Beautiful, and true.
What makes Preston so great is that you can be in the countryside in 10 minutes walk of the Town Centre.
I really hope you manage to stop them building all those houses on those wonderful fields - it's a great place to walk and cycle now, and would be a terrible loss to our city.
