    Many moons ago used to bus it to work and Digbeth was so vibrant.
    Seems everything has gone now.
    The Brum I knew has gone,only St Martins to give you a clue where you are 😊
    Last in town few years ago.
    Once I had finally navigated my way out of New street station found it all a bit of a nightmare.
    Will only ever go again if I have too.
    Born in Moseley and my Grandparents actually were born in houses in the city centre.
    A brummie by heart but couldn't live there again.
    Sad.

    I haven’t been there since 77 , I remember the silver blades, walked those streets looking for scrap to sell for a few Bob, rough area. You could get robbed of your scrap before you got it to the merchant near saltley gas works. Made a life elsewhere but forever a blue nose from small Heath

    How things change not been to Brum for years, definitely before COVID. We went to the Christmas Market. I used to work in offices on High Street, back in the early 90s. I used to have meetings in the Custard Factory and they had these really scary suspended walkways. That would have been in the late 2000s. My first skating experience was at Silver Blades when I was 10. That was in the 80s. Thanks for taking me around. Take care Gill

    Everyone harps on about Digbeth, but it's still a rough hovel thats overpriced and overhyped. A few people i know own a few spots down there and it all seems done on the cheap tbh. Town is mostly the same bar a few parts that have come good. The market is a joke and the high streets are finished.
