Not everywhere in this country is a s***hole, full of rapists, paedophiles, muggers, stabbers, shooters, robbers and unruly youths... as the daily mail would have you believe

I felt like I was on a tram drinking the dram. Couldn't remember a thing the day afterwards apart from the room spinning.

Dream dram, For today's man. and wo-man.
Nothing wrong with straight whisky

I think you'll find it's the minority rather than the majority.

I think not - we have people everywhere who are frightened to go out because of the mindless yobs who have taken over the streets - so if its a minority then can you tell me where this garden of eden is where you are living as i think a lot of people would`nt mind moving there.

No problems on the streets in my area. It's a large town with lots of private and council estates.

YES, as with most Cities/towns there are areas where gangs congregate. They have by no means taken over the streets and TBH you don't need to go into those areas unless you have friends that live in the area. There's definitely NOT a lot of problems.

I can honestly say my town is not a place where mindless yobs rule or spoil any part of the town. It's no garden of Eden but we have a beautiful coastline and the riverside regeneration is transforming the area into something very pleasant.

Yes a lot of people are moving into the area.

I dont read newspapers - why waste money when i can get it free of the net.
Also i see whats going on because im on the street most days so stop pretending that everyone is rosey when infact it is not.
Its not all doom and gloom but its not far from it.
