PS: It is a sub-woofer, isn't it?? If not, this is.

My DD lived around the corner from there. It was hardly the Bronx! :cool:

I recall that she had a good crop of mushrooms on the skirting board at that place, though it was chosen mainly because it offered particularly good facilities for her ferret. :rotfl:

OH said he used to drive the switchback road (Herbert Ave?) to & from work each day. The odour from the Ryvita factory not far away is still with him in spirit

He insists that the whole area from Lychett to New Milton & up to Verwood is just one giant sprawl with pretentious names, & thus should have one name only: Basingstoke-on-Sea was his suggestion years ago. These days that is probably unfair to Basingstoke.
Me? I quite liked Wareham when he took me to Cottee's auction room in the noughties.

It's not what I would call a knob. It's a decoration - a bit like a Christmas tree bauble. You can just see the thread from which it is suspended. There's a differently shaped, lighter colour, object on the other side of the window too.

naaah
its an American property therefore it stands to reason it must be related somehow to either guns or rednecks. Personally I favour it being the kitchen sink panic button which sets off the tracking device in the garden linked to the machine gun in the attic

Southill Road is pretty switchback:

Had to do a removal from half way down there in the snow. :eek:Yeah, and how often does Poole have snow?

Alder Road was the switchback one, very hilly and used to be very straight. The rotters have put in a roundabout, traffic lights and a bendy bit to slow down perfectly responsible drivers like myself.

The Ryvita factory is still there! I met the guy once who invented the Ryvita machine - the stuff isn't cooked in an oven, it is adiabatically compressed which heats the dough enough to cook it.
