A Preston mum shared her tongue-in-cheek encounter with Take That star ‘Gary Barlow’, who she found looking ‘lost and soggy’ in Fulwood this week.

Just days after Take That announced they will be returning for a UK stadium tour next year, Fulwood mum Lisa Wright spotted a soggy but festive looking Gary Barlow on her schoolrun.

Posting on the ‘We are Fulwood’ Facebook group, Lisa said: “On the way back from the school run we found Mr Gary Barlow. On Levensgarth Avenue, Fulwood.

"He’s very soggy and wet, but drying out here with us. But just wondering if he belongs to anyone?”
