They've turned the Horlicks factory in Slough into "luxury" apartments in something called The Horlicks Quarter

Saw that on a YouTube video, some guy called "wandering turnip". He goes and looks at lovely cheap houses or dead high streets.

Anyways he popped over cause the Horlicks chimney. Looks like a nice play tbh

My granddad used to live about a five minute walk from there, so we always drove past it when we went to see him so memories and all that. It also looks like they've kept the original factory building and built some apartments within the existing structure like how they redeveloped Highbury, left the chimney up and then built some new blocks in the same style as the factory. The new blocks look loving poo poo

I like that on the map all of the bread words are listed under THE HAGUE, as if the war crimes tribunal is assuaging guilt based on what you call bread

I simply get robbed by virgin media

I live in a shared house with one phoneline but my room is already cabled for virgin media, so I went with them

I got mugged once in Slough. They slashed up my jacket with a Stanley knife, cut me on the hand and took my wallet. But for reasons I can't fathom, I had already taken my switch card out and put it in my pocket and there was no money in the wallet, so they got nothing. Walking into school late because I had to get the jacket photo'd for evidence and saying "sorry I was late, got robbed and attacked with a knife last night" and then sitting at my desk as everyone looked at me like a lunatic was fun

Newquay is basically one big building site at the moment, have fun lol

The Carland Cross non-existent junction on the A30 in theory was terrible but traffic kept moving so it was fine. We're staying somewhere in the wilderness near Bodmin, so not even Newquay so I'm not sure if that counts or not. Also, I'm drove my mum's car and the normal pressure I would apply on brakes to stop my own car has caused it to emergency stop three times, which isn't ideal. On the other hand, when my mum was driving she decided that trying to overtake in mist and heavy rain at 90mph was fine, fiddling with the aircon when leaving Perranporth beach as traffic was coming towards us in a fairly narrow road was fine and also waving to my brother who was following while going down a twisty single track road was fine. I have never felt as much fear being driven as I have today

The A3 runs from the Monument tube station to the Spice Island Inn in Portsmouth and the Portsmouth end looks so non-descript

I go for a 5k run twice a week before work, but my motivation has taken a hit recently as heavy rain and strong wind have rolled in off the solent out of nowhere so I've ended up as far away from my house as I go absolutely soaked to the bone and with 2k to run back. Not fun in the slightest

I still have to apologise to Ravi Bopara for repeatedly calling him shite during a game against India in 2011, though to be fair THE SLEDGEHAMMER OF ETERNAL JUSTICE made a double ton in that same game so maybe he's forgotten

I assume they have app based table service? Unlimited drinks are kind of moot when there is a mob around the bar.

Last time I went (minehead, do they have others anymore?) seating was a free for all and people started queuing 2-3 hours before the main room doors opened just to get a seat. There were usually numerous arguments and a near riot when the Shaolin were on. There was a bar you could sit at and watch the queue.

Fun and delight for all the family.

The one in Bognor Regis is still going, and a thoroughly desolate place to visit in a February out of season
