Which place do you miss from your childhood?

This place. The Arndale Bus Station in Manchester, UK. The Arndale is a shopping mall and from 1979-1996 it had this huge undercover Bus Station. It was dark, cosy and overwhlemed you with diesel fumes. Yes, Im a nerd 馃槀

Did you move or does it no longer exist?

@SW-User No Longer exists due to progress and modernisation, It is now part of stores in the mall

@TheDarknessHasFallen wouldn't it be great to be able to go back in time and re visit these places!!

@TheDarknessHasFallen Progress? No way is it that. The dictionary defines "progress" as a change for the better, not change for the sake of change when it's actually worse than it used to be. Modernisation and progress are opposites.

@HeadGirl True. I can still mentally map it out too! The entrance on Withy Grove is now the entrance to the Birdcage. Never been in the birdcage though! I prefer the wetherspoons in the printworks!

@TheDarknessHasFallen The Birdcage is OK, I've been there a couple of times.

@HeadGirl Back in my clubbing days I used to do the studenty places in manchester. 42's, Gilly's and alot of palces up that end :P cheap booze and great music from the stone roses and Happy Mondays!

@TheDarknessHasFallen It's all right if you're into that indie crap but I'm not. I never could see the appeal of that music, I like dance music and R&B.

@HeadGirl Yes! I do like all kidns of music tbh. 90s dance the best! M People and Urban Cookie Collective, well, its not technically dance music. Prodigy is though :)

@TheDarknessHasFallen M People are great, they are one of my favourites.

@HeadGirl Ohhh love this! I heard this in the background of Classic Corrie the other day! its 1993 on there incidently!
HeadGirl41-45, F
@TheDarknessHasFallen It was a hit that year. I was 15 in 1993 and I loved M People as much then as I do now.
