A day of doing jobs today, one of which was collecting my new specs from Wigan.
That job done nice and easy, the clock had moved around to almost midday so I thought lunch in Lancashire’s pie capital was the order of the day. Plus while the day was bright and sunny it also had a cool edge to it. I took a wander, breaking in my new specs and weighed up the food options/choices.

This was created out of the network of canals that brought cargoes in and out of Manchester before railways and the iron horse gained the upper hand. […]
Rivington on the West Pennine Moors is an area I like to visit ( I direct you to previous blog posts for evidence of this ) . It’s criss crossed by a spidery web of twisting roads and lanes that attract riders of the motorized and unmotorized variety. Weekends are popular for these meet ups, the Top Barn especially, a three B’s kind of thing, a Bike, a Burger and […]
