the best part of wigan is the road to st helens

One finds the common people of Wigan so very underdeveloped in their manners and speech. One is sometimes ashamed to be associated with the District. When one looks down ones nose, one finds the town dirty, smelly and not to ones liking.

Hey Hank,
I found your comment to me very entertaining. One would think that an intelligent opinion would be based on personal expericence. Am I to assume that you have been to Wigan yourself? I find this very unlikely. I, however have been to New Jersey and based on that experience it makes your comment all the more amusing. Wigan is filled with loving and friendly people always willing to help you. New Jersey, well dare I say "Hell Hole"? is filled with people out to get what they want no matter what the cost or who they hurt. Your streets are disgusting and dirty and the women have far too much hairspray in their hair. May I offer you a suggestion Mr. Hank Burgess Snr?
Instead of talking through your rear end...perhaps you should be an example to your children. After all Super Nanny can only help you so much with your disfunctional children. I mean really, rednecks...tut! tut! I believe it is the rednecks that keep Jerry Springer's show alive. Wouldn't you agree?

Hi everyone,
I was just in Wigan for a visit in September 2005. It was nice to be back for a while. Everyone was as friendly as ever. I miss it a lot. If anyone remembers me...please email me.

since moving away 7 years ago i still have great memories of my home town the old pubs,shops etc, the way we talk ,it can't be beat "whats fort do" class.............

Well howdy mr burgess. Ah do believe to the folk from Wigan, A Hanky, is a snot-rag ;)

Hi all you folks in Wigan in England* My parents parents originate from your town. I guess I may have many relatives over there still. When I looked up about your place my wife cried "Wow, Hanky, you never told me you were descended from those Hillbillies". How we all laughed ! The kids have had us vow that we won't ever tell their college friends !

Zoe, the shops in the new arcade will be the shops that are already in Wigan and are already in every other town in the north west. You should be asking "What will become of the shops that are already in Wigan when the shops that are already in Wigan move to the new arcade"? The answer is that they'll either become shops selling worthless crap, or they'll all have their windows blanked out with shoe whitening. Zoe, come to St.Helens, enjoy easy access, park cheaply and see a nice selection of shops selling a good variety of items. Or go to Bolton, Warrington, etc. etc. etc.

i wanted to know what shops would be in the new shopping centre but couldnt find the link!

'A Wise Man has the Power to Reason Away what a Fool Believes'. It seems a Wiganer will believe anything !

I was born and raised in Wigan, I married and moved to the USA in 1951. I really enjoyed this little trip home.

why wasnt jesus born in wigan............they couldnt find 3 wise men and a virgin

hey gater wigan might have bin gud in ur days but that was long ago. now there just plain crap

Last week I was in the local papershop when an 'owd pit mon' about 90 years old shuffled in. He went straight to the front of the queue and said to the assistant, " Ast geet any Traaaaycle Toffee ?". The assistant said, " Bonfire Toffee Sir ? Yes, we have ", and promptly put a packet in front of him. What happened next was hilarious. At the top of his voice he shouted, " N'ow, I don't w'ant bloody 'Bonfire' Toffee, I w'ant bloody 'Traaaaycle' Toffee, like theres aaluuurs bin !". As he walked out through the shop door, he mumbled, " An nowheres geet me any !". I wonder if he found what he wanted ?

Come on Chaps, what, fairs fair and all that. But, of course, anyone, whether 'scouse' or otherwise must be 'posh' to be living in 'The Village', what. Tally-Hoooooooooo ! Oh, and yes, Wigan is just down the road, we sometimes send 'Jeeves' down there with a few scraps for the locals.

Hey Bruce Minoge in my day Wigan a club side hammered Australia.When they changed the rules to basketball Australia started winning.If they ever change the rules back to real rugby we will hammer them again.How about that skippy.
