Corby Boy wrote about "when they were banging their drums outside my house when I was nursing a monster hangover on a Saturday morning as a wee 16 year old boy" in Corby but says "it is best to escape Corby, I did many years ago and now live in Cheshire" - I'm not sure you can get away from the sound of their drums in Cheshire. The first recorded orange lodge in Cheshire was no. 27, as long ago as 1811. The City of Chester LOL no 375 website is at http://www.orangenet.org/lol375/cocf1.html

Yeah I have heard about them! Can't say I have ever seen them in action though.

Wisnaeme, I understand there is a hefty Scottish community in Coventry also. The town centre in Coventry reminds me of Corby also. Maybe they had the same town planners!
