Blood, Sweat and Broken China (the Removals thread)

I saw this Matthew James trailer parked beside the beach at Mojacar in Almeria Province in Southeast Spain
last year. About an hour later I saw it coupled up to its 6 wheeler on its way back to England, but I didn’t
get my camera out quick enough to capture an image. I think this trailer is the one on the right of your
first picture above. I will be in Mojacar from Sept 18th this week for a 2 week holiday, and keep my eyes
peeled for removal lorries. About 20 yards to the right of my picture is one of many beach bars, it was
owned and run for many years by Gordon Goody, the last of The Great Train Robbers. Until about 2 years
ago, he lived in a pretty hillside village called Bedar, approx. 10 miles inland from this location until he
passed away through ill health. Some other well known people who lived in this area until quite recently
were singer Peter Sarstedt, who sang “Where do you go to my lovely”, and Anne Kirkbride the actress from
Coronation Street, who was “Diedre Barlow”, both no longer with us, RIP.
