IN response to "Greater Manchester is good for Bolton" Letters, August 10, by K Smith, I would like to ask on which planet is his present home address?

Has he conveniently forgotten that some time ago the whole idea of Greater Manchester was abolished?

However, could he please tell us Boltonians and fellow Lancastrians what were, or ever will be, the attractions of being related to Manchester? As far as I can see it is the airport - to take us away from that self-centred city.

A true Lancastrian from Bolton.
