I have heard of all kinds of things, but never heard of Wigan Squares. I guess I have led a sheltered life.
Okay Margaret.
Wigan Squares were the size of a sub minature Rowntrees choc block, not more than 1" long, you broke one of the squares off when needed.

After that don't stray too far fom a toilet.

They were powerful little beggars.
Don't ask me why they were called Wigan Squares.
Last time I ever bought any were at Dicky Scents, he was a chemist on Nuttall St, near bottom of South St.
