Basschat housing estate

I don't mind where I live - 'cos I can get to work on the Sadowsky Metro :)

For weekends, a trip to the US West Coast (Sandberg, California), you know the place, just follow Fender Highway One. Watch out for the potholes - road's a little worn in places.

I might aspire to a nice little semi in Dennis Duna Way, but gyppo scumbag that I am, you'll probably find me slumming it in one of the clapped-out camper vans parked up on that strip of common grassland to the east of the estate, you know - Rob Green.

I used to lived near an aerodrome which is now a housing estate and the authorities named the new roads with names like Spitfire Way and Hurricane Drive. It got me thinking ...if Basschat folk could live on a (virtual) estate with bass related names for the roads, where would you like to live?

PS I'm busy really! :)[/quote]


How about [i]Trevor[/i] Burton on Trent.

Slightly off topic, theres a housing estate in Birmingham that used to be an aerodrome, where thr roads are named after aircraft etc.

Apparently theres a Douglas Bader Walk there...

I heard something similar - the Douglas Bader public house - named after the legless wartime hero (good man!!!)

Can't top that! :)

I actually live here and took this pic at the end of a couple of shows away (it's the racehorse the road is named after and not a prompt to enter a debate on the hunting ban!)

That's just a Status symbol.

My parents used to live near here.

There's a Fender Way in Birkenhead.
