So what would you class this as. A Fire road or an Obstacle course ? (just happened upon it while googling for something else !) :D :D 8-)

If I lived in such a shit place, I don't think I'd write the name of the street on the road...

Looks like the start of a Roddy Doyle novel,
but a good deal less funny.

I often used to deliver to a place on Fen Road in Cambridge in an hgv, access was tight (isn't it always) with the added obstacles from 'residents' parking of vehicles plus it was a narrow dead end road so once committed there was very limited places to turn around. One morning I got part way down the lane to find a police/customs&excise roadblock with no choice but to go through in order to deliver and also get back out again. It was absolute carnage with police vans, dogs, tow trucks, people resisting arrest etc etc ....... if only I had a dash cam :lol:

I hope that googling about wasn't getting a feel for the area around the AirBnb you've booked for 2 weeks :lol:

Jeez that's desolate

Just had another browse. Anyone else notice the refined lady in blue adjusting her brassiere ? I'm wondering if the google driver was about to be given a treat ! :D
