We had to attend a hospital in south B,ham today ...rarely go that way these days . Applying PC to the next bit .
Knowing the back ways I avoided the main city centre arteries but it goes through certain areas populated by certain folk who tend not to live like the rest of us . Everyone is driving around all day in really decent motors but seemingly not at work, traffic horrendous, park anywhere, no interest in painting your house , finished with that bed , mattress , or three piece suite , then just push it out onto the pavement .......there is obviously a contest going on between the population to see who can drop the most litter .
Mrs Deke , who doesn't get out much these days was horrified , I noticed it was worse than I remembered ! Believe it or not there are actually some decent areas in Brum , some extremely posh , some sort of normal for a big city .. the folk decent but perhaps not so well off etc ,... but that area Jeez !!! Yep its a dump .
I live in North Brum and tend to work , these days anyway , in & around that area . Should I venture forth into the city I/we tend to leave the job by 3.30 latest , than sit grinding in traffic . Last outing average speed for a 10 mile trip was 5MPH
