You couldnt make it up could you......

We could always let them use Orrell.

Too big

try doing your homework on the council website.

any household with 5 or more people in it are entitled to a 2nd bin at no cost.
i didnt find out till i had 7 in the household btw..i could have had one 15 yrs earlier.

just seen the time on your post.
no idea what moan mans doing, but i know what WPMs doing.
as you post i am sitting next to Feka at the Lottery agents do (as a guest) and listening to Sean Wane talking about the future being bright under MM.

he also said "in the next couple of years".......not "this season", which made me apprehensive.
another year of building???

SW praised the work of the Lottery agents, as the money hey raise goes to paying the contracts of academy players. He mentioned that Sam Tomkins and Lee Mossop had benefited from the income brought in by the Lotto , along with Liam Farrell, and a couple more.
He was upbeat about an emerging 16yr old prop (greg Burke (from RoseBridge?)) and reckoned he would be a future star.

George Carmont thanked the Lotto agents , as GC is their sponsored player this season.

All 3 had miffed IL slightly i believe by leaving what was supposed to be a bonding dinner for players, staff and their families, but these 3 felt the work of the agents was important enough for them to take half an hour out from the dinner to turn up.

Feka has ben given the nickname of TWIGGY he has slimmed down that much, but he still looks pretty solid. And hes shaved that bit of hair off the back of his head.

later we had special guests Terry and Baz impersonating Eddie and Stevo.
Tel was upbeat about wigan, and reckoned they could be a great team this year under MM and SW.
SW btw, said that he wouldnt have left his well paid and well liked job in the academy to assist MM if he didnt think we were going places.

finally (for those still reading this) Keith Mills pointed out that we were 1 up on St Helens who had suspended their lotto due to svere weather, whilst the wigan agents were still turning out in the cold to collect their monies.

marvelous what you learn at these things


and thanks for giving me the chance to slip it in.

Some people will do anything for a Free Season ticket & Slap on the Back!

It's those that pay for their tickets they should be thanking!

Has there been any announcements on when the schools are reopening? I hope the school near mine stays shut, because the parents all double park in my street. It's a nightmare getting out in a morning when schools are in as it is, without the added ice and snow!

There is a lot trying to reopen - www.wigan.gov.uk/News/schoolclosures2.htm But there is potential for snow late tomorrow evening so things may change.

Has anyone seen any shops with sledges in?
Looked everywhere yesterday.

Bewleys were allocated 15 before Christmas and sold out within 20 minutes.

Yeah tried there yesterday, may have to use a baking tray

I've been to Asda several times, Instore, Halfords, Homebase, Sainsbury's, Go Outdoors, The Range, Tesco... Nowhere has sledges.

the shine on his cup winners medal caused him to be distracted and crash i heard

wallpaper supplies in leigh has loads!

Went up to rivi today and people were 'sledging' on allsorts, even saw someone with an airbed mattress!

Your never going to let that go are you?

Thats probably not the only thing he won't let go of.

A BOUGHT SLEDGE.......... LUXURY!!!!!!

As a kid in Bolton, the best sledge i had was the back of a dining room chair, with the seat and the front legs and stretchers kicked off... Was brilliant...

PS I believe Rogues used a Mammoth tusk...

When I was at school we used (get this) - A car bonnet..!

A dozen of us piled onto it down a hill (inside school grounds), imagine trying that now with all this H&S.

Didnt some girls use a car bonnet once and went straig into a barbed wire fence which decapitated them?

Prob just an urban myth but everyone was talking about it yesterday

Found a sledge in the end, however I can confirm that body boards are far superior.
Worked a right treat up ont' Beacon.
