Pubs are going the way of other traditions
Margo Grimshaw column: The pub. My local. Whatever we called it, it was there – a place to meet, to chat, to see old friends, to make new friends, to argue, to debate, to let off steam, to blame the government, the council, or all the faceless ones, or maybe just to sit and watch other people.

Lancashire Telegraph comment: It’s hard to think of anyone who would disagree with the Bishop of Blackburn when he asks how ‘fat cat’ city financiers, who have had to be bailed out by taxpayers, can continue to draw bonuses.
Enjoy Christmas with a crunch
Caroline Dutton column: You know what? It's almost been worth downgrading to Smart Price for the weekly shop just for the effect this recession (nee credit crunch) has had on Christmas silliness.

Rev Kevin Logan column: We’re born to believe in God. That’s how we’re hard wired; the natural default position.
Winter wildlife by the river
Ron Freethy's nature column: There is a circular walk which follows the River Wenning at Hornby to a point where it meets the River Lune.
The questions all men must ask themselves
Helen Mead column: What to buy the man in your life for Christmas? For me, the socks/cheap aftershave dilemma never fails to put a damper on what is meant to be a jolly time of year.

Harry Nuttall column: How well do YOU know your local bobby, or Community Beat Manager as he — or she — is called in these politically correct times?
Making yobs see sense
Lancashire Telegraph comment: Firefighters regularly put their lives on the line to save the rest of us from death, injury and potentially devastating loss of property.
I wonder if my BNP neighbours fancy a pakora?
