The jaguar jet fighter displayed at shoreham airport was built in Preston. It's also the final assembly site for all RAF eurofighters.

Up your alley
When I was a student at Lancaster Uni, I used to often change trains at Preston on trips to watch football in other parts of the North.
I did even once venture outside of the station when I had a long wait but went straight back in when I could see that the town had nothing to offer apart from bacon barm which was more expensive than in the station cafe.

The most curious thing..
I once spent a night at Preston station waiting for the first train out. It was cold and very wet.

My friend Ann lived in Preston. Before she came to university, she'd never had a pizza in her life, just meat and two veg at every meal.

Come on you Lillywhites!

Is that some sort of code for you having more than just an innocent friendship with this bird.?

If so. You really have come on a lillywhite I suppose

When I was a student in the 80s, the hottest girl at my college was from Preston.

I'm not sure why or how this will influence tonight's result. however.

Depends if she smoked your bone.

If yes. Preston triumph
If no...Burnley carry the day.
