Quite well thank you Charlie. Sad news is that even the cafe known as "Jimmy Clitheroes" on the Market has now changed its name to the "Bluebe"2. Don't ask! But then again, there can't be many who even know who we are talking about these days. Trust you are also well.

Do some work, ya lazy sod. Though at least you're keeping an eye on the Melting Pot.

This thread is brilliant (especially as I'm posting whilst in Edinburgh)

Born at Firs Maternity in 1974 (It shut shortly afterwards).

Lived at Ena Cres until 1997 and a true Westleyther / Wigan Roader. Dads side of the family are all Plonk Loners !!

Lived in Birchwood since I have moved, so still not a million miles away (even though it feels it at times !)

Born in Leigh Firs Maternity Hospital in 1975, lived in Lowton for 20 years and have lived in Leigh for 17 years. Both our sons born in Warrington as I could not have Wigan on their birth certificate.

After talking about the Leigh v Leeds game my mum showed me a fantastic picture of her (when she worked at Leigh Infirmary and retired two years ago) of actually holding the Challenge Cup in 71' when (I think it was the Journal/Reporter or whoever it was then) took photos of the Cup Victory in the Community and to show the patients at the time.
