There is radio Wigan opened officially by David Belmer from Leigh David just happened to be stood in a bus stop waiting for a bus and they asked him to open the station... Where are you now David?

Comment by: LDB on 10th August 2016 at 09:34

I am from Wigan not Leigh

Sorry David, were you travelling to Leigh then? That's your claim to fame. I was working for Radio Wigan at the time recording their new jingles

Yes you are right I was waiting for a bus to Leigh

" I'd like to open Radio Wigan and Leigh and if I'd known what I was letting myself in for I wouldn't have done it"..........
