A bunch of Wigan lads on holiday at Butlins about 1967. Any one name them? I can only recognise one and then my mate had to point him out to me!

I remember most of these! They used to go to the old Casino Club prior to Northern Soul nights. Can't see Ducky Wiggans there.

I had the first pair of Levis in Wigan. Bought them in Wallasey in 1966. Cost me a fiver then. I remember later buying a Levi jacket off Wally Whittle. The tight b*****d charged me three quid...lol
