I don't miss anything much - they drove a motorway through where we used to ride horses and our bikes off-road, go for pic-nics and dip for pollywogs, they built a T***o next to the motorway at the old hospital and farm where we would visit the farm animals and pick chillies off a chili tree.
The road I used to walk to school is now unsafe to cross in many places as it 'serves' the motorway, and the parks we played in have been 'tidied up' and are no longer adventure playgrounds for eight year olds - as you'd have to avoid the spent hypo needles, and the dog poo bags hanging in the bushes

:(
