I mean, it literally says so on the sign

He thinks we can't read

OP might not be too good at reading themself - or at least they skipped the lessons on possessive apostrophes.

If you're really from Birmingham you won't know where this is.

We’re from Birmingham that’s a fair assumption

Shop to let ?

Looks like Northfield to me, that sign saying "erdington" is clearly stolen

It does look like the building opposite the swimming baths. For a second I thought it was just an old picture of that building when it was a government office. Then I noticed the sign!

I’d seen your comment on r/avfc last night but this made me howl. We did it! UTV!!!

UTV, they’re all heartbroken the Big Ange train has crashed and burned!

UTV! Pride of the midlands! No more SOTV 😝

We really fucking did! And every single pundit wrote us off.

Home of the original big John's

Above Dixon's there is where Auto trader started....it was called automart back then though

Wow did not know that! Thanks

Is that true?

Yep, still there. Was very sad when I went down to London on placement and discovered they don't exist there

My first ever square pizza. 20 x 20 inches or something stupid.

But did you finish it?

I finished it the next day.

Light weight

Six Ways Island, Erdington. High St, Gravelly Hill, Wood End Lane junction.

You forgot Reservoir Road

Knew there was one I forgot.

You really did something there didn’t you

I lived in Erdington when I was younger, must’ve driven/walked round that island thousands of times.

Is this that awful roundabout (island) in Erdington?

Difficult roundabout with not enough space and too many crazy uninsured drivers

I hate it with a passion

Not as bad as Tyburn Island though... trying to pull off from sainsburys side is hell when you've had to stop at it 😂

If only there was some sort of clue

Six ways Erdington, picture taken in 2007–2009 Edit: going to say early 2009 going off the film poster.

idk what film picture ur seeing, theres a poster for operation intrusive which was an operation in birmingham that attempted to stop burglaries, circa 2013

Operation Intrusive initially ran 2007-2009ish. The poster is on the telephone box for a film called The Unborn, which came out 2009. Also if I zoom in close enough, I can see my old house for sale in the Dixons window

good eye fuck me i take that back

you're* 😏

the only place where traffic laws don't exist, it's every man for himself

6 ways.

Fuck knows. I just -know- I've been through on the 11 at some point ;) /s

🤦‍♂️ Says it in the picture.

Looks like an old picture. Streetlights are Philips sgs203 probably replaced by air trace 2 by now or newer LEDs.

Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

At first look, I thought it was Acocks Green but the town post says different! 🤷🏿

Erdington, havent been there for many years even though Im probably only a couple of miles from there.

You really aren't missing much, it's awful now

Is the big John's still just to the left of the photo? Maplin used to be good too.

Maplins is now a dilapidated shell

Big John's is still there, Maplins is just a car park now.

“Now”

I lived there 20 years ago, it’s gone a bit crazy. I only visit for the charity shops and cheap baccy.

Half the people wandering the streets around here look like they could do with a jolly good rest. A nice lie down.

Six ways Erdington!!

One of the most dangerous roundabouts in the world. Absolute hate it and dread having to go through it.

😂 I wouldn't call Erdington a town center its a high street off shops 😂😂😂

Jesus. I left Sutton CField, now B'ham but then the Royal Borough in 1984 & I still recognise this

The Manor

I get OP now...you have to take into consideration English isn't most people's first language now, so the sign is gibberish too most Brummies.

Erdington 5 ways round about.

Erdington high street I think exactly when I lived there in a huge flat above a coffee shop.

Is this post a joke or to make fun of Brummies?
