The Anonymous Widower

Wigan Parish Church From The DW Stadium

I took this picture at half time of Wigan Parish Church from the DW Stadium.

It’s one of those times, that I wished I’d had a proper camera and a long lens with me.

Two Female Football Photograhers

You don’t see many female photographers at football matches.

But as you can see they had two at Wigan.

The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown

I’ve never actually seen the band, but I haven’t heard of them for years.  So I was surprised to see this poster at the side of the road in Wigan.

But like most bands of the 1960s, the The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown seems to keep going.

Wigan On The Up

I went to Wigan to see Ipswich play. These are pictures, I took show the area around the North Western station and the station itself.

Incidentally, the toilets were some of the best and cleanest, that I’d ever found on any railway station.  They were free too!

I’m sure if all stations were as clean and tidy as Wigan North Western, then more people would travel by train.

The sun was even shining.

Incidentally, Wikipedia says this about Wigan North Western station.

In 2009 North Western station was identified as one of the ten worst category B interchange stations for mystery shopper assessment of fabric and environment, and was set to receive a share of £50m funding for improvements.

It looks like the money has been well spent, as the description didn’t fit the station I visited.
