Johnny Cruise: Well done my friend, some achievement that. Just wish you were as good at squash. Ha ha.
Mara Grasso: Had so many laughs working here, many years ago. Such a lovely guy is Ian x

Well done Ian, still one of the top hairdressers, such a friendly salon.
Donna Howcroft Townsend: Go on, Ian
●● A BELOVED curry house has issued a plea to customers amid concerns it would be closing for good. Owner of Balti Stan Harun Miah raised concerns earlier this year amid plans to install a zebra crossing right outside his restaurant on Whalley Road in Claytonle-Moors. (See page 5).
Daniel Woods: Everyone saying that a crossing is needed but there are two pelican crossings up and down the road within 2-300 metres, this crossing goes to no houses at the moment so wouldn’t be needed. The current crossings work fine there’s a speed camera so the road isn’t a race track on this location. This is purely to service a new housing estate that nobody wanted and should never have been built and will make everyone’s commute even longer. If people are that bothered about kids’ safety consider all the fumes they have to breath in whilst all that traffic sits idling each day and with more to come.
Paul Seddon: Safety yes, how many accidents happen through stupidity though. Roads are for cars predominantly, not people. Whalley Road is shambolic for travel using it daily is a nightmare, then now Read gets clogged too.
Gillian Barnes: Well I love this curry house, and there is a crossing outside the Hare and Hounds. And like others have said a zebra crossing will only add to the long queue of traffic already on that road
Robert Harold Howson: Trying to get up that road from Sparth house in a morning is slow moving so putting that crossing in will make it even worse and it’s only being put there for the new houses that have been built to make it easier for them to get out and I don’t go to that restaurant but use that road every day to get to work and back home Mel Creakle: Children’s/ people’s Safety comes first its a horrendously busy road with schools nearby. Scott Collinson: It’s ridiculous how people will sympathise with this when if you have even ever been through Clayton it’s the one thing residence have been screaming for years.
