This is what you said Brian, how would you read this if you were after local information?


I note that you have failed to provide any advice to margaretpar on what she may look forward to as a resident of St George's ave. Your statement that  "there are many families who have been there many years and dont seem to have any problems." to me says that there are a lot who do have problems. Perhaps you have information that you feel might add to the discussion. I can only comment on personal knowledge that I have.

The whole concept of certain social housing placements often raises problems with residents. I drive up and down Pound Street quite frequently and always look across at the home, and I use that word on purpose, that I was born in and brought up in. The terrace was very respectable, all the neighbours were friends and having a policeman knock on the door would have been the ultimate disgrace. It now looks like a third world terrace with two doors smashed down. The youths that congregate outside the Candy Box are a worry for the businesses that trade close by, they find all sorts of things in their courtyard. What is going wrong I ask.

There is no escape. I watched a police raid on Chesterfield Rd the other day.
