Clarendon Park, Leicester (which is supposedly a "fashionable" area). It's practically impossible to drive through between the major roads on any particular residential street, as they're virtually all either blocked off or one way at some point, but you can still get cars into and out of the neighbourhood. The problem comes with trying to get someone to deliver you anything (especially furniture) as the lines of cars parked on both sides makes it virtually impossible for large vans to get onto the streets. Some years ago I was living in a narrow cul-de-sac in Reading - cars parked along both sides making the actual useable street very narrow indeed. One day there was a big fire near the closed end of the street; people trapped in the burning building etc. It was most entertaining to see the ladder appliance nerfing parked cars out of the way on it's way up the street! Excellent! I dearly wish I had beeen there to see it. Wouldn't that be frivolous transport ? Or would you use your leather shoes mr vegan ? |
