When I told them that it’s next to Ormskirk the blank look on their faces said it all. I asked if they had heared of Liverpool and they of course said yes, I asked if they had heared of Southport to which the reply was yes, I then asked if they had heared of Wigan and again the reply was yes. I then told them to imagine a triangle drawn between those three places and that Skem is situated somewhere near the middle.

To give them a better idea of what Skem is like I expalined that it is like the Milton Keynes of the North West as it’s famous for it’s roundabouts. I remember one of the DJ’s off Radio City commenting that it took him three minutes to get to the Concourse from the M58 and three hours to find his way back!
