Ianp - I could instantly tell they were not form around here, as soon as I told them we were from Wigan they disappeared ASAP.! - Strange folk. I'm always amazed at how "posh" people view Wigan with disdain, but are pleasantly surprised when visiting / moving to here. A neighbour is a cockney, and loves the town.
Yes Standish was a down to earth part of Wigan once. True Standishers are allreet (but I couldn't eat a full 'un) - its a % of the newcomers who just don't "fit in".
Wiganers can be a bit strange also, can be very clanish at times, except for us Poolstockers - we're an Island race within an Island race !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
