Very true.

When the boiler didnt work at Fisher you were told to put your coats on!

There was. 8-8.30pm

Was there? On BBC One? The I player says Holby City was on.

St Mary's High School, Astley is shut tomorrow also.

As is Hindley J&I (Argyle st)

You can add St John Rigby College to that list as well

It's on the list. That list is on the Council's website btw.

He's probably not far wrong as it happens; I know for a fact that it continued to snow for at least an hour longer in Leigh yesterday afternoon than it was in Wigan (I know because I drove between the two at the time)

Are you for real or is this a pi$$take?

The point is both Leigh and Atherton ARE IN Wigan.

Different weather system and therefore different places

Just a few streets I Wigan I believe.

Big delays/trains cancelled from wallgate to manchester if anyone is braving the public transport network. Problem at atherton apparently.

How many people do you know to have sued the school for anything? Its a myth.

I just googled 'parents sue school' and they are the top 5, there are 1 million and 80 thousand hits. One of those is parents sueing the school for not checking a teachers myspace page.

I'll put it another way, your a headteacher, you decide to pass a school fit, a kid falls on the ice in the grounds you passed fit, who's fault is it??

Are the trains running from Leigh?.....

I can regrettably confirm that services have now been resumed, although there are still plentiful delays. I have never seen a more miserable bunch of people than those stood at Wallgate at 8am...

Them 5 were from America smart ar5e its expected from daft yanks, they would sue for the slightest thing over there, I said how many do you know to have sued the school over something like slipping on ice?

It's a work in progress

Bus diversions still operating on.....

32 Wigan to Manchester (currently not operating via Castle Hill).

540 - Service currently unable to serve Castle Hill or Washacre Estate.

600 - Service operating via Wigan Road instead of Old Road.

610 - Wigan - Hawkley Hall Circular is currently not serving Fulbeck Avenue due to road conditions. The service will use Carr Lane in and out of the estate.

621 - Service not operating via Bell Lane in Kitt Green, going straight down City Road.

Im not surpised, Old Road is barely passable.

Just a quick question. I went to work yesterday and the car park for my work was completely iced over, now for Health and Safety reason I thought that was dangerous enough. But if I had a car crash on the car park, who's at fault me or the company?

You for your car, them for you.

the media were just getting over excited again; in London all the tubes and buses are running, the roads are open and everyone except the media are carrying on as normal.

And there's a lot less moanng going on down here than on this site!
