Bizarrely, and for no discernable reason, there was a small estate of four roads all named after the Beatles
Before I moved to Somerset, I lived on an estate in Lincolnshire where all the roads were named after Imperial/Colonial stuff and British war heroes. Odd. We lived on Viceroy Drive; there was a Mountbatten Avenue, Independence Drive, Burma Avenue, Wimberley Way and [Ned] Kelly Close.
Must be fun coming up with new street names!

If it's so nice outside where you live, why do you spend so much time on this forum? There must be honeys galore strolling about with next to nothing on - and don't tell me that's got boring already! Semi-
If i was that hot in Bristol all the time I'd have a post count of about 7.
