This month's special feature is on 'Magpies Friends of Foe?'

There are also a lot of tales of Old Salford that have been uploaded as part of the Retrancing Salford project by Mike and Jane. They're take on local history is to bring the stories that might be lost to you directly. These include

Contour Housing are planning to involve different groups across the country in one big philosophical conversation, and we will all be talking about the same subject! The question is top secret at the moment, but will be revealed to facilitators on the first day of the Big Chin Rub festival on 12th July.

You can register your interest by emailing the team with your name and details of your group, school or
organisation  and we will send you out a pack with everything you will
need to make your Big Chin Rub a huge success!

The festival takes place 12-16th July 2010 so you can hold your event any time during this week. They will be asking all groups to post their final thoughts, ideas and conclusions back here on this website.
We’ve also got a film crew covering some of the events so if youre interested you could be lucky enough to be chosen to be on the BIG CHIN RUB film!
