Wigan Album

Can still tell you from your Rathbone days photo.

Oh thank you woodentop, pity the rest of me doesn't jfollow suit :0)

My Mate Dave used to work for Carole and Charles when they had "Wigan Accident Repair". How you doing Carole?

Hi Jimmy, is this Jimmy who did the hospital radio? You must mean Dave Bolton right? I am fine thanks and living in Billinge with my partner. I guess you know that Charles died? His anniversary is coming up April 8th, 13 years. How are you anyway? I bump into Dave very occasionally, his girls must be growing up now, haven't seen him for a while.

Yes it is me I go to Dave and Louise's for my tea about once a week. Claire and Nicola are brilliant and very funny. I did know about Charles, I lost my Mum and Dad a few years ago now. I'm still living in the same place. How is Ben, Lee and Nicola? Do you ever see that bloke who used to work in the office can't remember his name?

Hi Jimmy, sorry to hear you lost your parents, we're both orphans then :o) Nice to hear you still keep in contact with Dave, give him my love when you go again. All three of mine are still in Winstanley. Nicola has a daughter Stephanie who is 13 and she lives with her partner. Ben and Lee have both just broken from relationships and Lee has moved in with Ben for a while. Ben is an industrial plumbing and heating engineer now, Lee has just had to come out of a bodyshop business he started with a guy last year but the economic climate didn't give them a chance and so he is working with Nicola's partner who also has a bodyshop in Kirkby, near Makro. Nic will be 33 in July, Ben 31 in June and Lee has just turned 27. I work at Ingersoll-Rand in Hindley Green as co-ordinator and have been here for 9 years. Seems like a lifetime agao when we were at the garage and you used to visit. What are you up to these days?

Still doing HR at Wrightington and I have been made a trustee for Wigan and Leigh Shopmobility (I think why were short of people to ask). It seems like a lifetime since I used to come down for my dinner at the garage. Happy times especially winding Harry up. Not seen him for a few years but I hear he is OK! Please keep intouch as its great to hear from you. I have put my e mail on this comment.

Thanks Jimmy, you will probably have got an e-mail from me by now, thanks for that and over to e-mails. Does Dave not use a computer?
Best regards
Carole

Hello Carol, Yes Dave does use a computer I will tell him to have a look at the photo and get in touch when I see him.

Thanks Jimmy, will look forward to it...come on Dave!
