BBC Radio Five Live: “If you’re on the motorway anywhere in the south of England, you’re either stuck or you soon will be.” Wasn’t much better in the north, either, with most public transport grinding to a halt in Wigan town centre.

Only a fool would venture out in that.

...though to be honest it was actually far worse where I live (not pictured).

I’ve been doing a little bit of guest blogging for Wigan Athletic media site [Thas] Not a Patch On Harry Lyon, which recently unveiled its new user blogs.

It coincides with the launch of my new football blog, Jesus Was a Wiganer, which you may remember I mentioned a week or two ago on this very blog.

Not sure if there’ll be much difference between the types of posts featured on each blog, but I plan to share them out somewhat, with the longer, more detailed stuff mostly reserved for the NAPO blog.

Expect my activity on those blogs to fluctuate through the course of the season as and when I find stuff to write about or feel the urge to blog and, of course, when I have the time.

Incidentally, that picture is one of mine. There is a possibility you may recognise it as it has been syndicated around the internet:

It’s on my Flickr account in its highest quality, so feel free to use it for your own devices – a plug might be nice, though .

I’ve been wanting to set up a Wigan Athletic blog for a while, but I never got round to it. Who knows, maybe I might get the time to do some vlogs for this one. To be updated whenever I feel the urge, and most likely after I return from the matches.
