Surreal car park

While I was walk­ing around the Jewellery Quarter in Birm­ing­ham, I saw the most amaz­ing car park inside a demol­ished build­ing. The roof and front wall were gone, but the side walls and floor were still there, with fire exit signs hanging off the walls, and cars parked on top of chipped floor tiles.

Birm­ing­ham

Last week I went to Birm­ing­ham for the day. I got some cheap train tick­ets in the sale, it was only a fiver each way. I had bought them at the same time as my tick­ets for my ill-fated Glas­gow trip the week before (got tick­ets to see my friend Chloe in Glas­gow for £30 return, missed the train by 1 minute due to trans­port holdup, and Virgin wanted £140 for a new single, so I had to forget about it). Every time I’ve been to Euston recently, I’ve thought “hmm, I haven’t been to Birm­ing­ham for over a decade, it’s not far away, I should go there”. So I did.
