Hi Gram, <Hi Margaret, Cowheads are from Westhoughton,Pie eaters from wigan.As you lived in Tyldesley for 5 years are you a naturalized Bongser ? Gram McGlynn> Thanks for the explanation. I suppose I was a Bongser when I lived there but as we then moved to Reddish near Stockport for 8 years and have been in Preston for 17 years I am not sure what I am really! Whatever, I consider myself a Lancashire lass as Swinton was still Lancashire in 1951. (There, that gives my age away!) Margaret North.
