The Great Wiganese Derp Hunt
I'm on a roll, I've been out derp hunting again with Jaynelouise and Bigjobs. This time we decided we were going local and we're hitting up the super derps in Wigan ;)
I know, I know EVERYWHERE in Wigan has been done many many times because let's be fair there...
Visited here twice over the span of a week, once with the SO, and the second with mookster,Brewtal, Zotez and obscurity.
It's a big place and I didn't realise how much I'd missed till the second visit!

After a boring day at work I dusted off the waders and found myself in some tunnels under Roundhay park. Shortly after walking into the tunnel my torch decided to run out of batteries
:shock: this meant using a head torch to light the place up!
It feels nice to be back home exploring
