Wigan Album

Lyndon, I love it, talk about the " Little Rascals "....

I remember Pam Heaton and Carol Winstanley.

You bring back memories, Lyndon. I didn't realise that anyone else had a copy of this. It was taken so many years ago in our back garden. I'd love to see a present day version! The houses in the background were where Mary Corcoran lived on the left and the Smith girls on the right. Carol

Janet, I am striving to place you!.

Hello Carol, I'm Janet Lomax. Leyland Green Rd.

Snappy dressers!

Carol, nice to hear from you after half a century. Hope you are well. Please give my regards to David.

Carol Winstanley was my first girl friend age 11, Pam Collinson nee Heaton will soon be Lady Captain of Ashton Golf Club where we are both members. David Thompson

hi carol nice photo often wander what happened to the family of uncle arthur.give my regards to david and clive and of course yourself.

Hi Carol remember me nice to see you on

Janet, It's good to see your name, it brings back happy memories of Leyland Green Road and in particular your house where your Roy and I spent many an hour.

Hello Eric, not looked at this pic in a while, then saw your name. Funny you should have mentioned Roy, as I was talking to him just before I came on here. Are you the Eric that's working on the reunion? I live in the States and am coming over to visit in May, but unfortunately I arrive the week after the reunion, so sad, I would have loved to have been there.. Anyway I hope you are well, I will have to phone Roy again and tell him I have seen you on here..

Janet,
It's too bad you'll miss the actual Reunion, but the week after, the school is holding a fun packed week of different events. I'm not too sure what they are exactly, but the photos from the Reunion night will be on display.
When you next speak to Roy, tell him we celebrated the S & S football team's 40 years, last year and also, tell Paul that my daughter, Kerry was asking about him.

Hello Eric, I only arrive on Thurs the 14th, so I'll miss the events also. If only I would have known, I could have planned differently, but...Maybe you or Dougie or any of the other D/Gns that post on here would put some photos up for all us ex-pats from D/Gns to see. In all the photos posted, I haven't seen anyone who I was at school with. I will pass on your message to Roy. Wishing you All the Best Eric, I hope you all have a BLAST at the reunion and if you see anyone you think was from my time,{I left in 56}say hello from me, please..

Janet,
I went into school yesterday and told the Headmistress about
the message I put on the site and about your situation, she said that if you wanted to call in during your visit you are more than welcome.

Thanks Eric, that was so nice of you, I think though, I may be there, I am trying to change my flight to come over a week earlier. It means I give up my direct flight and have to change in Newark NJ, but....My brother Stephen is going and I've told him to get a ticket for me too, see you there.

Hi lyndon remember me from Ashton GS--------used to knock around with Bob Merry/Alan Ratcliffe/Mark Heaton/Andy Stevenson.Hope you are ok and see this

Hi Jim, of course I remember you and your tales of Benny Dodd. I saw you at the reunion, when Mick didn't recognize his best man. Hope you are keeping well. I've not seen any of the lads for a while but I have been in touch with Stevie by e-mail.
