Macclesfield
(10 Posts)I don't know much about Macc, but I live in Congleton. It's a super-boring, sleepy market town, but I find that it's a lovely place to raise kids, quite safe too.
Also, hi, local mums.

Yes congleton is great, although it's at risk of becoming a sprawling commutersville town of massive new housing estates 
We have some fantastic events though, with the food festival, the jazz festival etc a wonderful park, on the edge of loads of country walks, it's really central - easy links to Manchester and the m6.. great schools both primary and secondary, some lovely shops springing up (although still too many hairdressers charity shops and opticians!) the local populace like to moan a lot on the local Facebook chat site, but all around its lovely. Some great eateries as well. Hubby and his parents and grandparents were born and bred here, that's the type of town it is.
Hahaha, puffylovett, are you on Congleton CHats Back then? ) The moaning is a bit over the top on that group, but yes... charity shops, betting shops and opticians. And then some more opticians. :D
Yes coffeemilknosugar I am! I try not to be 
as it's scary occasionally, but sometimes, usually when I'm a tad hormonal I like to go on and wind a few people up 
Hahaha. ) I'll definitely look out for wind-ups from now on!
