I had no idea there even existed a Leigh Rugby Union Club until last weekend. In fact, I’m still not sure it exists (a rugby union club in Wigan Borough?) and I was actually there, for their Victorian Day fayre, no less.
It was a less corporate affair than its heavily hyped commercial cousin the WOW Fest, but was nonetheless fun in its own way. In fact, it was more my type of festival with a more homely, village type feel about the day.
