This has nothing to do with Barnhill HG3 5DH, but it's a story I would love to have shared with ...
Many, many summers ago, during my college years I met the "Linda" of my life. I have never been able to get Linda out of my mind though I last saw her back in the early 70's.
Fast forward.
Tonight while in my late-night fugue state drifting through YouTube songs, I stumbled across Harry Chapin's Taxi. Early in the song he mentions "16 Parkside Lane" and someone in the comment section asked if anyone had ever google-mapped "16 Parkside Lane." It turns out there is such a location just a few miles east of where Linda grew up in Westfield, New Jersey.
Just looking at that map again brought back a lot of bittersweet memories. Wow. Incredible. And then I think of all that has happened in the past forty years or so. Linda is gone now, and she never would have ended up at 16 Parkside Lane. Or could she have?
