| Been to the lakes today and since i was around the area i popped into millom to see if i could find the track and see what its like. Found it and hopefully this week i'll have around 50 pics up. Had some other banger related moments including re-doing the route to barrow (or most of it) which was emotional and i also got to try the new bypass for the 1st time lol passed a yard/barn with 307 butch on a finplate just off the A595 on route to Millom which i guess is the kirkbrides. Then near milloms track i found a breakers yard looking thing which had a mondeo in the air and a ladder as if someone had been working on it,perhaps benno or chucksys yard? Also spotted a steeles removals van on the kendal bypass road. _________________ R.I.P NuDgEr

tbh, you should just be a barrovian.
You'll soon get sick of seeing Steeles Removals vans everywhere round the town tho  |

lmao
I dont go down the mills much these days either Jess, not been down in a few months. I loved it down there would be there day in day out but more recently people have moved out, rent and rates are higher, its just not the same down there more of a serious feel when everything was a laugh...sounds silly for a bunch of garages but was brill as Im sure a few of you will agree. Avoid the mills now would rather remember good ol days down there!

| I also dont think the owners have helped the matter, which has led to all these fires cos they have simply neglected the site. And they gave us a bollocking for piling car interior outside our garage...wtf. |

| Yep, totally agree James. I never even saw a proper banger meeting there but there was just something about the mills that made you love it, lol thats why me and bekki would go on the train as much as possible. the past 2 times we have been its felt wierd, sorta scary coz no one was about and the track had been demolished. we had managed to get to that blocked off part at willys old flat, but left straight away coz it felt so wierd. But I`ll never forget the good times there. Painting the track, exploring the buildings and just wandering about. I do miss it. |
