South Oxhey
Sort-of suburb of Watford.
built in the 1940s to house soldiers and such after the war. They had to build it in such a way that it couldn't be seen by any of the posher neighbours.
The BBC recently described it as 'forlorn' in the blurb for the choir program. I would have complained but then 'we' managed to elect a BNP councillor. I no longer write my full address.

Sorry it's not funny.

Missed me!
A few years ago, I was on my way to a m/cycle rally, bike loaded with camping gear.
A few miles from home, I was following a car through a series of 's' bends, when an approaching car in the middle of a group of other cars decides it would be the ideal time to overtake them.
The car in front of me swerves off the road but still manages to get hit by the overtaker, which manages to pull it's right front wheel off.
This car, by now sliding sideways across the road, approaches me. I slam on the brakes but, being totally loaded, skid and fall over.(Broke my mirror.) The car just managed to stop as it touched my helmet.
The (woman) driver was totally p*ssed (about three times over the limit) and was trying to get the car into gear to get away.
I have some photos taken when they were cutting her out of the car.
