Morning lightSo away into Wigan in the morning light so C can cancel her standing order to sort an issue. She’s dead chuffed.  We bump into Stue on the way back to the bus station.  We go in with surgical precision, into Nationwide and back to Ashton having found the Little Kitchen has closed.  Brekkie at the Tom and Gerry’s it is.  Then a light bit of shopping in which we find a clock that ticks and chimes (Muggins here pays for the bugger!)
