Different photo Mick. Still lots of old money around.
Yes Ken you can tell its a different photo from the date at the top.
Feeing a bit bilious this morning Mick?
Plenty of money there, I thought we were all struggling in Wigan and struggling to afford even the basics. Yet some have boats with canal front apartments. Areas like Gathurst, Appley Bridge and Parbold seem to be a haven for Wigan's rich crowd.
is that Mr. Breheneys boat?
Breheney was in the last of the flats with teh very long decking pateo, and his boat was called Guinness, over the last few years Ive since seen the boat parked up in Ince and Parbold.
Who is this character Breheney?
Mick - the Guinness boat belonged to Dave Cleary (former Orrell RUFC)- Breheney owns the 'private bar' at the end of the flats which can be seen from the canal
