Hi, Yes, I went to visit my old house in Blundell Road and considering it is over 100 years old, it was in very good condition. This proves Burberry Brick and Brummie bricklayers are worth a lot of praise. As kids we used to sneak into the quarry at Burberry Brick to play and be chased away by the night watchman, old Abba who was reported to be deaf and dumb.
I also visited the flat I lived in after getting married and the first house I bought, both in Douglas Road, Acocks Green. I visited houses I bought in Merecote Road and Brookvale Road, both in Olton before moving to Hampshire.
Despite all these adventures and because of the pleasure I got from being back in Brum, I shall be back next year to see the places I missed on my last visit and to do the things I didn't get around to do.
I am one proud Brummie.
