The Furthest You Have Walked Home.

Most recent was a few years ago from Frodsham to Warrington then a bus home on a Sunday Morning, the worst was Sparkbrook in South Birmingham to Stafford through the night then a lift on the M6 in 1970.

Enjoyed it to be honest.

The Temple to Daisy Hill in my purple ralph lauren shirt, well it was one of them fakes where the horses legs didnt cross or summat. Anyway walked home with 20 embassy number 1 they got taken off me in Deane, had to stop for a sit down on that bridge across from the pigeons because I had a blister, limped the rest of the way after thinking it was a good idea to pop it.

Shanks's Pony from Bolton to Horwich a few times. 3 steps forward and 2 back for 9 miles.

2006 did the same. Was grimmest hour/hours of the weekend. One of our group was still in chatty mode whilst everyone else was unable to muster a single word retort. It was fucking hell.

 

Couldn't wait to get under the duvet in the back seat and crack open a beer whilst my mate drove the 5 of us home at 35mph down the motorway.

 

 

 

Walked from ikon to Bromley Cross many many times as an 18 year old. Not really that far but meant I could afford a kebab and another drink!

Yes, I've watched the meter clock up before now and thought duck it.

When they closed Eagley way people used to be able to get 'free' taxis from the Wigan clubs to Bromley Cross. If you were quick!

When Bolton nightlife was great in the 70s, never thought twice about walking home to Astley, stopping off at Soldier Blue for a butty on the way home.

From Eccles to Breightmet once in my youth. Up through Monton, walkden , farnworth, Moses gate , Darcy lever and then got twatted off some lads as I arrived " home" at Bury rd

Typical , all the places I walked through and get done round the corner from my house

That is pure bad luck, been all over the country and been in scrapes with football and nightclubs in the past, but that is shite when you get done on your own doorstep, had it once when I got jumped in 82 walking home not far from home.

We were hammered so decided in our wisdom the safest way back was down the tracks so bumbled our drunken way down them.

 

I do remember having to shuffle along the tracks in the tunnels

Walked up the tracks after being shunted on a train in Wembley Sidings after falling asleep on the midnight train from Manchester, got to Stonebridge Park Station.

Littleton Road, Salford to Highfield, Farnworth in the snow.

 

About 8 miles, took ages.
