The large buildings in the center is the Kaiser Hospital. We live just north of there. Wink

Smorgs and McT...it has just struck me how very similar our own roads are. I know we all live in England, but still.....I think I would be able to instantly recognise an English road straight away, most of the time. When I first scrolled down without looking at the names and saw yours, Smorgs, I thought that someone had joined A2K who just lived round the corner from me....SO similar.

The south Manchester suburbs are startlingly similar, stultifyingly soporific, singularly semi-detatched.

But with a few interesting bits. And lots of nice people.

I've been to England in 1964 for the first time, stayed then (and the following x-years) in a semidetached house in Poole/Dorset.

That house and that street looked exactly the same as ... in any of the south Manchester suburbs today. :wink:

(What amazed me was that even the ideas how to change/alter/add rooms etc are all very similar.)


On the other hand: once been in a semi-detached house of the 60's/70's in Germany, you know all as well.

Think of the 'swinging' that goes on behind those nets...

Not that I indulge...

OOH! I've just gone to "google earth" and got an aerial shot or two.....


The end of my back garden is about half an inch beyond the end of that horrible pointy thing in the picture.
The area beyond my back garden - where the pointy thing is - is the playground of the local Junior school (screaming little brats, the lot of 'em).
To the left of the pic is the park, and golf course and woods beyond - where I walk the dog.
The three strange circles at the bottom of the pic, are paddling pools in the park (more screaming brats).
The line that runs between the left "google" and "earth", is the Grand Union Canal.
