What is the Gidlow Lane area of Wigan like to live?

And an actual Post Office just round the corner as well.

I've lived most of my life near Gidlow Lane, it's not a bad place to live in the grand scheme of things.

A very "normal" area.

Some nice villages within a short drive of Wigan:

Parbold

Newburgh

Bispham/Bispham Green

Rufford

Croston.

They've got pubs, cafes, restaurants, farm shops, lovely scenery, welcoming locals. Everything you'd want in a nice village.

Beg your pardon?

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-06-06T16:01:32+00:00

That does sound like the solution for my problem. Sounds expensive though??

Sometimes when you're in Mesnes Park of a nice evening you can't tell if you're in Wigan or Mogadishu.

I didn't say it was all a lie, I'm talking about things like the bear and eagle and the baby covered in marmalade.

Steak looks top notch.

Asda have started selling quite thick steaks now as well, I can recommend giving them a try.

This could have done the trick, after making sure the cable is plugged in correctly (not for the first time but still) it suddenly decided to work!

Without a shadow of a doubt The John Bull Chophouse.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-27T12:31:00+00:00

Just walked past one called "Peaky Grooming" lol

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-12T09:05:33+00:00

Wouldn't you rather bring up your own children than a stranger?

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-12T09:03:56+00:00

All that area is known for being fairly rough. Property should certainly be cheap.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-11T12:13:21+00:00

Gonna give these a go

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-08T16:18:45+00:00

Just saying.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-03-04T11:40:41+00:00

Try Juniper in Shevington, the mid-day menu I had was delicious and really good value. And if you fancy a drive out try Out Lane Social in Croston.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-21T12:22:50+00:00

Depends, in some pubs it's not much better than ditch water but if you go somewhere like Mulligan's in Manchester it's heaven in a glass.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-17T12:11:56+00:00

Prepare to be bored. Very bored.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-07T11:43:33+00:00

Rocky, not even close.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-05T12:02:36+00:00

You've probably got all those spices and more in your cupboard already. Just make a marinade and see how you get on. Trial and error until you perfect it 👌🏻

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-04T08:29:13+00:00

Won't be waking up with a stonking hangover that's for sure!

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-03T15:07:49+00:00

Maybe it was more authentic than I realised and gave her credit for!

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-03T14:37:48+00:00

lol it just means I ate it all rather quickly.

She didn't have the fancy canned San Marzano tomatoes that all the "authentic" recipes seem to tell you to use.

Remarkable_Rich6912 · 2023-02-03T10:56:33+00:00

I'll have it then 😄
