These pages are mainly geared towards Ex-Lancashire UK people living around the world..  We love to hear from Lancashire people at home and abroad.  So if you were born between the River Mersey in the south to Hawkshead in the North, from Blackpool in the East to Bacup in the west, you are as welcome as the flowers in May.  If in doubt click our Map Page to the left then feel free to browse the Ex-Lancs pages.  You can go direct to our new Ex Lancs Discussion board where you can read our many postings about anything and everything.  Feel free to make as many free postings as you wish. The only requirement is your first name. No fees, pops ups or con tricks on our pages. ------------   My name is Mike Grogan.
