I was very impressed by all the deatail that can be found about Wigan and WIganers in general. Some of the threads are really funnyI also spotted the one about Industrial Reels I worked there for 5 yrs. in the sixties. happy days.

john griffin. there is a frank griffin on the school photos, was he your brother?? he was in my age group

john I cant bring you to mind yet. Griffin rings a bell though. yes it is kathleen my brother is 5 years older than me. so you would have been 14 / 15 when I was 10 years old.

Hi Terry,how are you doing.My Pc has been on the blink.Does the lady speaking to you happen to be Kathleen Byrne from Peel st.She should know me then,I was in the class below brother Terry.Bit of bad knews,I heard that John Ralphs has passed away recently.Contact you again

Your correct Terry my brother is a Terry as well

Hi Kathleen,I've looked at the photo you referred to,and though it is probably more than sixty years ago I do remember you,that is if you lived in Peel St,and have an older brother ,it does seem so long ago.

Think it is a great site. Spent all morning on it - must go and do some housework

having read through some messages know a lot of people from wigan.

michele was your grandad a tutor at st helens college and was your dad a skinhead when he was15/17yrs old?

Message dedicated to Fred Foster re Parkside memories.
Peter Dooley is my Dad and Bill Holdsworth was my "Uncle Bill". Your portrayal of them in their younger years was accurate and kind. My Dad still is a "firebrand" but he is also sensitive and fair. Thankyou for such an accurate portrayal of my soft,soppy Dad!

I have lived in Wigan all my life and never regarded Tyldsley, Atherton or Leigh anything to do with our glorious town. They are all Charity Shop villages!
Only joking, I work with some Leythers and they can all read.
