Basildon town centre. Evidence that HG Wells had it right - the Morlocks have evolved already.

Didn't Edward Thomas write a poem about Didcot? No. No, he didn't. That was Adlestrop. |

I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the view from Frodsham hill Cerretonia - especially as I live there! Teeside chem works at night is equally blade-runner-y. |

One of the worst things about Didcot for me was cycling the Sustrans Route 4 Thames Valley route through there. The stupid thing basically does almost a full lap of the place.

LOL at The Teaboys comment about Coventry on the previous page. So true. 😂 Just hoping that City of Culture money is going to improve things a bit!
