Tunstall Road


How the fuck do you turn a car over there.
Because people drive like complete and utter arseholes. It’s that simple, I’m sitting in with the boy as he’s learning to drive, last night when we were going to pick his lass up, i was just warning him to watch his speed as he was coming up to the limit and this f***ing wanker overtook us in some massive bmw/Audi suv thing like we weren’t moving and very nearly lost control as he swerved back in. The standard of driving now is beyond horrendous.
 
The roundabout and its immediate local area used to be known as The Police Box on account of there being (at that time) such a box located by the side of the road. It was a useful general identifier name.

Gardners the bakery/post office, Lawsons the newsagents, Chalks the greengrocer. Then they built the newer shops including Olswangs the chemists.

I remember when a red light meant you had to stop. It's unbelievable the amount of times you move forward from green and some dick head will come round from another part of the intersection clearly after it's turned red.
 
That bottom roundabout is also really bad for people who park outside the florist and shop.

People who park there can just pu out on people on the roundabout. But, it must be hard to pull away from when people are blasting round.
I've always thought the whole concept of having essentially parking bays on a roundabout, and a busy one at that, is absolutely mental. There's forever people pulling into and out of there, and it's a wonder there's not more accidents result from it.

I remember the petrol station.
Where the old people's flats are now.

Lethal where they are coming up from the Hastings Hill pub to the A19/182 Roundabout
