Well done to Lancaster Library for displaying such a wide display of LGBT books for Pride Month and I am glad I managed to read Young Mungo by award winning writer Douglas Stuart a moving story about forbidden love and hatred set in a Glasgow Housing estate in the late 80s .

The railway station at #Grimsargh on the #Preston to #Longridge line in #Lancashire, 1960s. It closed to passengers in 1930 although freight ran on the line until 1967 (hence train in siding); houses are now on the site. @blogpreston @Hoddy1982 @railnigel #Railways
