Are you Catholic just asking because timbo is another name for a RC in Scotland?(will not hold it against you if you are) bike looks good, nothing like fixing it yourself, now as you are only a hop skip and jump from Liverpool keep the bike locked up
I live next to a place far worse than Liverpool because in the 60s and 70s the Liverpool and Merseyside councils shipped all the tenants of the high rise blocks there to get them out of the way, it is called Skelmersdale, it is a delight!!

But it is not the mix of people that Mr Sudworth said makes Skelmersdale most unique, but the lack of one piece of road furniture which the new town never brought to the area.
"There's no traffic lights, so we don't get any traffic jams.
"The road network was designed in such a way so as to keep the traffic flowing.
"And as it was built for about 80,000 people and that stopped at about 40,000, we've got a road network that could cope with a lot more."
It is mostly a sh&thole!! The mix of people is EXACTLY what make Scummersdale unique! I am sure that when they built it they had a vision, then they put that lot in it, they inbred and got worse generation on generation to where they are today. Then they threw in a load of eastern European migrants into the mix and that made it so much nicer (not!), but you can guarantee a good car wash and it's cheap, so not all bad.
I don't live there but am uncomfortably close to it, but it isn't all bad.
