FANCIERS from throughout England and Ireland descended on Tyldesley Top Chapel for the Wigan Roller Canary Club show.

And Ulster breeder Mr J Woodside had them rolling in the aisles with his breathtaking songbirds who topped over 200 entrants.

"We'd like to thank judges Bill Weir, Dave Poynton, Tony King, Owen Boyle and Bob McWilliams for their dedication and to Rev John Wilson and Val at the Top Chapel," said Atherton duo Tommy and Theresa Cunningham who run the Club. The next meeting is on January 25 at 1pm in St Richard's parish centre, Mayfield Street, Atherton. Details from 01942 873374.
