We all aspire to happiness, but why happiness in Bolton? In the late 1930s, the Mass Observation Happiness Project turned its attention to Bolton (anonymised as Worktown). The extensive research papers from this exercise are still available and provide a superbly vivid insight into the joys and the disappointments of ordinary people in Bolton at that time. This book looks at how have changes since then have affected the aspirations of Boltonians and their perception of the good life. In 15 chapters, authors (all active in Bolton today) offer a diversity of insights into happiness. They look at the importance of exercise and fitness, the role of leisure and the part music and the arts play in happiness. Religion can be a pathway to happiness for some, while forgiveness can assist in recovery from despair. Addiction - often a barrier to happiness - can be conquered, as described in two personal accounts of journeys to recovery. Early awareness is a great start, so two chapters outline programmes for schools. Social factors are shown to be important for adults in community groups. The northern theme of the book is reinforced with details of the character and culture of 'Northerners', while the results from a recent research study on the differences between the North and South is revealed. A repetition of the 1930s Mass Observation study highlights changes in aspirations since then. Suggestions on the way forward for the experience of happiness round off the book. Happiness in a Northern Town is a collection of different perspectives into happiness and wellbeing in one book. It offers hope in overcoming barriers to happiness not only in Bolton but beyond.

Boy days is that period of growing up where you become aware of yourself as you progress from a small boy going to school and gradually enter the world as an adult. During those formative years, boys experience and experiment with all aspects of adolescent life. Not all boys do experience these wonderful stimuli of growing up, and later in their adult lives, if they are unable to do certain things, they are often told that "they did not have boy days." This book is about a person who experienced the whole gamut of boy days. Accompany him as he and his friends go from one boyhood adventure to another. Do things with your mind that make you wish you had done in your growing-up years. Parts of this book will bring back fond memories to some and maybe misery to others. Sit back, lie back, relax, and reminisce about all our yesteryears. They were indeed happy, happy days.
