Without giving away personal details, his flat is on the south
side of his block with a line of sight west-south-west straight
up Upperthorpe (not Upperthorpe Road, the road called Upperthorpe)
towards Crosspool, 1.5m Google Walking distance.

Failing that, a trip to the local MP surgery may invoke a letter


People keep coming to me with these things because I used to be
the local councillor and "Jonathan knows TV things" having been
a Channel 5 retuner doing the jobs too complicated for the
swathes of electricians and decorators that made up the majority
of the retuners back then.

Odd. I replied to this this morning.

His flat is on the south side of his building with a direct
line of sight straight up Upperthorpe (not Upperthorpe Road,
the road called Upperthorpe) in a west-south-west direction
directly towards Crosspool, about 1.5 miles Google Walking
distance.

councillors until a year ago, and because I did Channel 5
retuning work 15 years ago "Jonathan knows TV".

Sorry for highjacking the thread a little.

I was born in Jessop's and used to live at 46 Sherde Road. Upperthorpe was
my growing up ground. Then we went to live at Intake. Once married, we lived
at Crookes. Now living in County Durham.
Such a pleasant surprise to see someone on the news groups from somewhere I
know so well.
