THANK goodness there is plenty of sense over Bolton Institute's new name.
Education bosses favour the University of Bolton over other suggestions which included West Pennines University (too vague) and North Manchester University (no!).
I'm waiting for the day, maybe not too far off, when Manchester is described by someone as "near Bolton". Sounds fine to me.
