Title: Whit roundabout this morning.
Post by: Fly on January 19, 2015, 09:35:46 PM
Whilst having a walk around and taking photo's, a bloke came toward me and asked me if I was from the council.
I explained who I was, forum, co owner, local taxi driver etc.
He gave me a few comments on how walking through the Whit Moor under passes at night can be a bir scary.
He also told me there is a big problem with the underpass at the end of Holland road, onto the Sheepbridge Estate under the A61 Dronfield By-Pass. 

I thanked him for his time and took a pic of his dog, as you do.
I gave him a forum business card, yes we do actually have some, and said I'd make his dog facebook savvy.
Plus post his pic on the forum.
Might be muzzled, was as soft as sh*t :-)

I also photo'ed Tesco's roundabout this morning. Like I said 2 shoots in one day.
If your going to do something, do it, don't say it.  ;)
It's getting late. I'm trying to share some photo's. LOL

When is the underpass getting filled in?  Have I still got time to go and take some pictures?

NicheUK don't worry about me getting mugged.  It's highly likely that the muggers will take one look and think "I best leave that one alone!"

Seriously thank you for the warning, much appreciated  (y)

Good photos Fly. As I am never on foot at that end of town I didn't even know they existed.

Plenty of grafitti, but some of it is a bit more arty, hence the inclusion of the shot.
Obviously Im not condoning people who deface walls in public places. (Did I say that right)  (y)

I like graffiti, especially the 'arty' stuff. :)

I parked right outside J.E.James Gerty. Then entered the subway from there. Saw a couple of old ladies walking through it whilst I was there on seperate occasions. They both looked like they were sh***ing themselves bless em. It is/could be a bit scary TBH
I was there about 15 mins in total.

If you haven't seen it people, go have a look.

When it's gone .  .  .  .  .  .  .  .
