Oldham's bristling social scene is somewhat diverse and energetic. You could soak up the atmosphere and heritage at one of the local mosques before strolling the derelict streets, taking in the lack of sights and purchasing a meal (of sorts) from one of the town's countless halal eateries. Alternatively you may choose to attend a BNP or English Defence League social, where you can sample some of the low cost, high alcohol content lagers and ciders available on tap or in (warm) cans, whilst participating in a lively discussion about the town's future prospects and general lack of ambition. Furthermore, if you happen upon the town at the right time of year you may even have the opportunity to observe one of Oldham's notorius street battles, where young men and the occasional feral female banter with youngsters of other faiths and communities before launching into acts of extreme violence fuelled by an ingrained racial hatred that is prevalent within the town. Whilst Oldham is a blissful place, if those options don't float your boat, you're probably better off staying in the hotel - ideally with the door locked and curtains closed.
