Crap Towns Return Launch

Crap Towns spread of books. My Bradford photos made it into the Bradford section. I went to college in Bradford and worked managed/cooked in the Java cafe/restaurant. This was 20 years ago before everyone called there cafes the Java. The Java cafe was very successful and employed 20 people at a time which is a lot for Bradford. But the City council was jealous and had the building pulled down. The council got demolish happy and pulled down lots of beautiful buildings and replaced this with a giant puddle. The most successful thing now is the film museum and they want to close that too. Bradford had an amazing festival till the council got hold of it and ruined it
