Travelled the M62 route over the Pennines many times in all seasons and weather. Always thought of Brady and Hindley at a certain point in the journey together with the girly boys who slaughtered the real men and a family on a bus on the M62 in 1974. The oldest passenger on the bus being 28 and the youngest child only 2. A whole family of 4 slaughtered by girly boys, both parents only 23 and their children of only 5 and 2 years old. Quaint words of dismissal like "The Troubles" might cut it with the self-serving and the yanks but not with the decent and the many. Captain Bob Nairac from Sunderland gave a bl00dy nose with his bare fists to a gang of the girly boys who set about him before they overwhelmed him. So embarrassed are they for what he exposed them as that to this day they won't cough up to what they did with him. Strange, eh, that, given the so-called agreements of co-operation of the so-called peace accord.

And not forgetting Stott Hall Farm which is encompassed by the M62 near to its summit. Always a bit of an enigma but courtesy of the internet no longer so.
