6. Did you know that in the Wigan area used to be known as 'slow walking cakes' because it was the custom to serve them to mourners at funerals.

Any ideas?

Birthday cakes? Although why serve birthday cake to mourners.

No, not birthday cakes, Lolly.

Jo anne are you expecting it to be on the hot side where you're going?

Yes, very, Naughty Mitten.

(I sometimes write my address as Greater Manchester )

Happy Lancashire day everyone. The plane is flying tomorrrow, thanks for letting us know jo anne. £25 for the best picture of the plane

taken, so get your cameras out at the ready.

I missed the plane - did anyone have more luck?

@FORLancashire:
Left Blackpool Airport at 9.25.

I ventured out at 9.30 but didn't see anything. There was very low cloud though.

Maybe ticsmon shot it down

Yes, visibility was poor in Ince too, Lolly. A shame as it would’ve been good to spot it.

I doubt it Naughty Mitten, he’d be too busy being amused at people looking up and pointing at a plane.

Valley Brass  Haydock

'Haydock Urban District Council' coat of arms!

It’s got an interesting history - Facebook:

Of course, the Ram's Head is very prominent in Haydock history !

A beautiful building, Ticsmon

Now a residential home called Haydock House, aptly run by Aries Healthcare. (St Helens Star)

As far as I'm aware, it's still derelict?

It's just up the road from Oy's grans house. He's a Yicker, tha'knows!
