No stories pilty,but made a point of counting the bridges I went over/under to work this morning .. tried to grab the dates but, amazingly, the traffice was actually moving. I counted 6 (2 were motorway but they don't really count)
How could I forget the railway bridge at Oswaldtwistle station !!..been held up many times by lorries getting trapped under the 13'9" height (even though
think they changed it back from metres, well, did on other bridges anyway in the U.K.)
My childhood was spent collecting and eating the wild rhubarb that grew on the banks of the Queens Road bridge .. how could I do that !! Even was christened 'Rhubarb' by my school friends for years 'cause of this obnoxious obsession .. now I only talk it !!
