Folks - Northampton , for those that live there , junction of Mill Lane and park drive ( roundabout near a storage dept for beer cannisters, near kings heath ind estate) heading from town (and the bridge over the rail line) to the BP garage - on the left side of the roundabout( as you approach it) is a camera (plus a cctv dome) and what looks like an ANPR sensor - not SPECS as no others around - could this be a check for seat belts/mobiles , given Northamptons infamacy for motoring offences??

Your right beside Kings heath

(keep windows tightly wound up)


Nothing sinister so don't worry,
any cameras you see, are for the benefit of thieving scrotes of 'the Heath'

Rich36, I'm confused. Do you live in Portugal, or are you in Northampton?

No where near, I just thought it was a perceptive to the point quote! .

Slightly unfair to label them all thieves? however the camara has lasted longer then I thought though!

Its better than it used to be,
although, spotting the changes might be
difficult to gauge.

There happens to be a busy (electrified) railway line insulating us from THEM
so in defencive terms, unless they've bred a super-human chav, that can hurl bricks more than half a mile,



I'm safe

What surprised me bout the area is the mountain of beer kegs (presumably empty) stacked inside a 6 ft fence (or is it electrified)close to the rail bridge

carlsberg's depot.

some even hsve their best effort contained in kegs.

Its secure, and manned 24/7.

interestingly oppposite them, a G/F used to work at sweet distributors,

she said they often came into work, to find fat kids trapped inside skips/bins
after out of date stock

without incurring the wrath of the NIMBY liberals on here,

it might be said we have locally encountered some pikies.

the land sale, over which the whole thing kicked off late last year,

was apparently bought for cash readies by some twenty seven year old,

and if the local rag is to be
trusted

we wait with baited breath, (and baseball bat to hand)

Its a small world Nick! I was going to buy the bunglow at the end facing the fore mentioned lovely pikey park. Needless to say I withdrew from the sale, after wasting money on planning etc. A close shave!

You boys out on the local run out then?

On the left rich last one out of town, used to be "bell and sons house" they built a new bunghole to the rear of the original. Facing directly onto site
Not what I had anticipated? I wanted to enjoy the country side view not crappervans.

This run out :
www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=65&t=252588&p=2

It will be my first so quite looking forward to it, will either be good or cras? Only one way to find out though.

Do you fancy it Oldie?
