Photo-a-Day  (Monday, 24th February, 2025)

What’s he doing? He’s not is he?

Is that young lad having a wee?

well if he is, it is multi use afte all, that is until you come to the barrier at Mesnes Park North entrance .

Why do you think he took the photo Kath

Exactly Frank..
Not that I condone what the lad is doing.

I only commented last week about missing Dave Oys photos of the three sisters, Haigh Hall and Pennington Flash that we all loved to wake up to, and now we are left with this.

Is that where they all hang out Mick?

Is he having a "p" ?

Well done Mick, you nabbed the notorious Walkden Avenue Flasher!

I think the lad’s actually just talking to his mate who can just be seen behind the post .
If he was doing what you all seem to think he was doing , then he’d only have to walk 50 yards and he’d be around the corner and out of sight , so why would he risk a charge of indecent exposure ?
It doesn’t make sense .

Its time to close the book if these are
The only photos you can come up with.

Ozy must have Xray eyes to see through that telegraph pole. Lol.

He's got both hands in his pockets . A highly unusual style if he's having a slash ...... I reckon he's waiting for his dog to catch up .

If you look at the left hand Edge of the pole, just up from the push button control, you'll see a nose emerging into view. That will be his mate, lagging behind. So, no, he's not having a 'wee', 'pee', 'squirt', 'slash' or 'jimmy wriggle', or whatever you want to call it, he's just saying "gerra moovon thee".

Common practice for folk in these parts. The gentleman appears to be indulging in the traditional Wigin World pastime of... talking to a brick wall.

This is part of the new multi-user path that runs from Standish to Wigan.
It starts on Standish Wood Lane, then you take a left turn towards Wigan Road then turn right following the old Robin Hill trainline and past the Gidlow Washery & WWII air raid shelter
Cross over the farm track that goes to the farm and past the back entrance to Gidlow Cemetery.
You then come out at the top of Gidlow lane, take a left into Dawson Ave cross the road at the new crossing and then down the nick into Barnleys St.
Left turn onto Buckley st. then cross over at this Pad crossing and your into the back entrance of Wigan Park.
All offroad except for a few quiet streets near Gidlow lane.

With hind sight where is Dennis with his Snow Drops when we need him.

When you got to go , you got to go. !!!!!!!!!!.

Thanks for the information Harold, that's a new route that I can explore on my next ride out.
