Stevenage?

The old town excepted that hateful place is the true definition of council. Miserable grey uninspiring sthole. (I lived there for a couple of years before escaping)

Close, but no cigar.

Hatfield? (I lived there too, made Stevenage look positively upmarket.)

Chrysler PT Cruiser with those vile stick-on chrome flames and gold piping on the paintwork.

Barbed wire around the edge of a flat roofed section of your local and/or medical centre.

It's a mascot. Drivers carry a mascot for good luck.

It's because of the song "Teddy Bear" by Red Sovine.
Sad song about a kid who is crippled and loves truckers, because his dad was a
trucker but died.

...c/w an abandoned shopping trolley outside, broken glass all over the floor, and one of the windows of said medical centre boarded up after being put through by one of the local gene pool.

Without thinking I just typed Paedo Bear Van into Google images to try and prove your point.

My computer went into bloody meltdown. Unusual traffic, enter password, etc etc etc.

Type teddy bear truck photos.

Nope, I'm expecting Kommissar Fritz von Paedohausen to knock on the door at any minute as it is!

I just did an image search too (without the Paedo bit) but couldn't find anything like the van I saw last night that made me think of this thread.
It was on my usual dog walking route so if it's there again tonight I'll get a photo!
