THE CONCRETE ROUNDABOUT (TCR)

Family moved to MK in 1998 and moved away in 2012 and I miss living there massively. All the shitty memories I have of growing up - the underpasses, playing fields/green spaces, roundabouts, new build housing estates (and some slightly older ones), being too scared to venture into Fishermead or Eaglestone, going up the city, the bowl, how quiet it is on the roads late at night. It's peaceful as fuck. MK definitely has a soul. Would move back in a heartbeat but the cost of a mortgage and even renting somewhere half decent in MK is just too steep compared to where I am now (near Walsall). Lived in plenty of towns and cities in the UK and abroad and MK still feels like home. The only other place I've enjoyed living as much as MK would be when I lived in Paddington in London for 18 months but that was just down to being so close to central London and lots of things always going on.

Buy a boat.

Only Dan pisses against the side of his boat, the HQ of the Bubba-Gump Shrimp Company.
