When I was younger I remember going through Washington New Town in the car with my parents and finding that very monotonous. All the roads look the same and back then the areas were referred to by numbers, so you never really knew where you were.
I can't find a photo of the big road signs, but they were all like this

yup, its all a bit futuristic
Wash roads have massive verges as you may have noticed - this is so the main roads could be made in to 8 lane highways when the place took off - the green space around the place was always designed for expanision - very odd place, but people seem to like it mostly

I didn't actually take the picture today, I took it a while ago, I meant 'today' as in the sense of 'in the current era' I'm afraid.

I've googled and it seems the town centre shop is shut but there is a factory shop outside town that is still open.

Steals was fucking amazing. A carrier bag of wonderful stuff with the labels cut out for about two quid an item. Sometimes they looked amazing. Sometimes I discovered the zip was broken tragically too late. Sometimes I was pointed at in the street in a bad way. But they were always two quidwas steals good? i never went in. fucksake.

Mmm. Electric shocky. No, upstairs was all Kate Moss at Topshop with frayed seams and far better more obscure wear but I am pretty sure the mens stuff was crap and featured fake graffiti and Amaerican campusesit sounds like my perfect shop. but through the window it looked like they sold that tragic polycotton stuff they sell on market stalls.

I've always thought she looked like a right miserable old cow whenever I've passed this. Couldn't she just smile for once - it wouldn't kill her?
