Sounds like very little has changed traffic wise then! No Davenport? I went there to see Chris Boningtoin give a talk after his Everest trip.
Just remembered - it was Bryone Drive where we lived. 4 students with a Daimler 4.2, Jaguar 4.2 Coupe and a Vauxhall VX2300 on the drive. Made quite a racket when we all went off together...(Grants were bigger in those days!)
I remember we got broken into one weekend. It was a rented property and the landlord reckoned we were lucky only to lose a few electrical bits. The year before the house had been stripped bare. I took the hint and moved somewhere safer - Moss Side - just near Maine Road - which has also disappeared. Hmmm is there a pattern here?
Sold the Daimler and bought a Triumph Herald convertible. Never lost the yearning for soft top motoring.
