I'm only 3 miles away from Ormskirk. My village was a part of lancashire until the mid 70's when Sefton stole it. :(

Did you go to edge hill university? Edit: Sorry just noticed your age, so that wouldn't make sense,

Yes I do know what wollyback means. I been attacked & abused in my own neighbourhood my area has gone down hill, I used to like a ruff area & have a posh accent cos of speech therapy. I need to move out of neighbourhood thanks to harassment I had for the three years as low lifes have being going around the neighbourhood spreading lies about me.


I'm sorry you are having to put up with that. I totally sympathize with you because my friends and I have had similar experiences. One of my old friends had to move to seaforth at 17 years old because his parents are Jehovah witness, and didn't approve of his lifestyle. His neighbours bullied him to grow cannabis in his room for them (he got nothing for it) and he was constantly victimized by them with violence. It lead to him being sectioned with schizophrenia, and now he is a shell of his former self who eats his own faeces.


Its ok mate the lowest point was last year I taken an over dose as my family were starting to believe the lies, the good that come of it was the criss team came to my home & for it best I get a AS Diagnoses (I had another one before 30 years ago but the doctors were taking the piss & thought I was NT). :D When life gives you lemons make lemonade!! !

A lot of the areas that border present-day Lancashire should really be inside it. Like Southport.

Tequila I noticed you have a special interest in british villages (great photos by the way). This documentary about Hebden Bridge might interest you, it is very gritty mind....

You should see Oldham or Wigan...


Wigan is ok they got pies & I got mates living there :wink:


Wigan: often described as the arse end of the world. Luckily we lived in Ashton-In-Makerfield so were out of the way.
