Do the folk of Wigan, call trousers pants or trousers? Asking as I saw another post saying that he lived in Wigan and everyone he knew called them pants like Americans do.
Just took me over an hour to get back from Wallgate to Shevington because had to backtrack 3 different routes due to flooded roads.

Hello everyone,
I hope this message finds you well. I am currently an intermediate-level developer with skills in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. I’m passionate about coding and am looking to connect with others in the Wigan area who share an interest in programming, whether for collaboration, learning, or simply discussing coding topics.
If you’re working on any projects, are interested in meeting up to share knowledge and ideas, or know of any coding groups or meetups in the area, I’d love to hear from you!
Looking forward to connecting with fellow enthusiasts.
Asking the real questions, just popped into my head, miss him.
Hello you lovely Wigan people, I’m new to the area. Tried the local Chinese last night and it was bloody awful! My son is an avid member of the salt and pepper fan club. Any recommendations or pointers for a damn fine Chinese? Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know where there's somewhere decent to go on a Friday night that isn't completely dead? Am on King street and it's completely dead. Any suggestions?
Hi, I am looking for a good barbers around Hindley Green/Hindley. I've had some bad experiences with Turkish barbers, so would prefer one that speaks English as their first language.
Hey guys, anyone know of any pubs looking for new singers/entertainment?
Female vocalist here doing most music from the 60s - to current tunes x
I was going to maccies on my lunch break and accidentally drove down this one way road. Yes I know I’m a fucking idiot but I genuinely did not see the no entry sign cause both my sun visors were down, and yes I know that’s a poor excuse but shit happens. Luckily there were no on coming cars and no accidents happened, however I have crippling anxiety and as this is the first major mistake I have made whilst driving, I am terrified I’ll get into trouble for it. Does anyone know if there’s like any cameras on there or anything?
And yes I will take WAY more care whilst driving round there cause the roads and bike lanes and everything do confuse me a bit.
Has anyone had any dealings with Torus Homes or had any experience looking at this plot of new homes in Pemberton?
Looking for any opinions really, from the quality of the builds to where it’s situated. For example, there are new builds near me, but none of the locals would touch them with a barge pole as they’re built on the site of an old chemical works. It’s supposedly tainted the land beyond repair. No veg growing to be done there for sure…
Anyone have a good GP and have a diagnosis of any of the following: M.E. , POTS , EDS.
Really need to change GP but worried I will be jumping out the frying pan into the fire 🔥 thanks 🙏
Looking to buy a house in Standish and was wondering if the area near the lakes and River Douglas there, including properties like the cottages, have ever had issues with flooding/near flooding?
Ate there any groups that meet in Wigan or the surrounding areas. Trying to find something constructive for my rather energetic 6yo to get her teeth into. Google didn't get me anywhere as you have to sign up before they give you locations, but I don't want to sign up unless it's possible to get her there.
Hello all, I'm looking for a nice toddler friendly pub, nothing in the town centre but more like in the surrounding areas/countryside (parbold, eccleston etc within half hour 45 min drive), just after a nice pub with a toddler friendly play area, so no massive slides but something to keep the kids happy while me and the wife have a swift one. Anybody got any recommendations?
I've been looking on Google maps but it hasn't given me many results etc so thought I'd ask on here instead
