Hole In The Road Thread with Pics

It's not your road. It's MY road. How dare you to claim it is your road.

 

For your information, they're in my pond having babies about now. :cool:

 

What? That's just the name of the site. It used to be called "THERE IS A HOLE IN MY ROAD". That's just the name of it. I don't understand your point though cos I've not tried to stop you saying its your road. It is your road, just as it is mine. But the hole isn't there now and the fishes are missing.

I was just daydreaming and I suddenly remembered the 'HOLE IN MY ROAD'. Does anyone else remember this? It was near where that horrible cheap shop is now and also it is fairly close to some other shops. You can get off the tram there. It's called Castle Square.

Anyway, when I was a child I'd go there (HOLE IN MY ROAD) and then it got filled in.

My question is where did all the fish go?

 

I was told they were on loan only but Bennets bought them, he had them on display and one day the tank exploded and you can imagine the damage it did.

I got this info from my partner who was working on the shop at the time it happened

Remember the "Hole in the road"very well it was a good idea at first built so you could cross the busy intersection safely,going towards High St. there was an escalator up to street level!.In only a few years it deteriorated the bench in front of the fish tank was occupied by street drinkers knocking back meths and cheap cider.One memory then was of streams of urine emanating across the floor from them making the place somewhere to avoid,I could never understand why the powers that be used to tolerate them there and the Town Hall area in those days,one day walking past the Town Hall the wife and I saw a whino urinating through the wrought iron gates on the steps in broad daylight in full view of women and children passing by,disgusting,this was in the 60s!.
