    Basically, just asking for anyone here for a little help. Basically my old house is due to be knocked down sometime soon id say and before its gone id like some pics of it.

    Now normally id do it myself, however due to my location i cant. I had a lot of happy and interesting memories of the place when i was growing up in it in the 80s. So im asking for anyone with little time to spare over the week to take some pics of my house before its gone forever.

    Its the house right beside the Aldi in the Glen, its the one thats a real eye sore,next to the lane.

    Thank you to anyone who helps me, and put a smile on my face.

    thanks for ur help. But yes it will be obvious, if u were looking at the front of Alidi its the first house to the left. Theirs a small lane, and theirs roof supports at the top, broken windows and grass and plants growning out of the windows.

    I know the one!

    Unfortunatly, I'm shooting a wedding in Scotland on Friday, and I'm heading over tonight to get myself sorted. Would it still be there next week?

    wasn't there a house set on fire there awhile back close to yours.

    Did you hear if anything is going up in its place? I think the laneway is called, glasshouselane, but i'm not certain as I'm only a blow in
