Marcin Bahrij is a Liability

Marcin Bahrij listens to Portishead on the rail at High Wycombe’s concrete oasis found under the bridge in town and allegedly funded by Sainsburys. Never knew that Freestyle had delivered a park for Wycombe’s locals until now though so thanks for sending this video in. The last time we went through this part of the country we were in front of the judge at the court there for a speeding fine and stinkbombed it on the way out. Much fun.

Follow your nose to the Liability blog for all local knowledge.
