Wigan Album

I remember everyone going in that toffee shop after school. Great place for a buisness..

I remeber having rags put in my hair the night before walking day so that I would have nice wringlets with big ribbons in. My new white sandals hope they do not get tar on them from the road melting in the heat!! The ladies from Sunday scholl coming to our front door asking how much material I would need for my dress. My mum used to make all my dresses & dorothy bags for my pennies. Good memories. The hair at the back of my neck still stands up when I here any band. Cold winters and hot summers!!
