Marsdinho Posted 21 April, 2009 Share Posted 21 April, 2009 Just got this email.... Nightingale Avenue Closure We have just received reports that an unexploded war time bomb has been found close to the shopping precinct in Nightingale Avenue and a 50m exclusion area has been put in place. This will obviously have an impact on the park and ride transport which will use the Leigh Road route to the site. It will also have an impact on traffic in the local area for the next few hours.

You piece of useless humanity. I'll take the infraction thank you. Agreed ESB, my gp's lived in the bird aviary and it is without doubt one of the nicest 'estates' around. Happy childhood memories of jumping the river in Fleming Park too. It's changing a bit though, new houses in Magpie Road and Chestnut Avenue, Most of all though, I miss the banger racing on a Sunday.

The girlfriend turned to me earlier and said, 'it'll be ok, those bombs don't work any more' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember places like Falcon Square? With the grass in the middle of the houses and the alleys round the back of them? They're even building on the spare ground at the back of those alleys! There are 3 houses on the piece of ground which formed the cut between Linnet Square and the back of Falcon, used to be my route to the Cricks.
