JJ most of the people i know are law abiding, kind, caring individuals, however that can't be said for the 700 or so gangs we have here, not all are gun toting shoot em up loons, however many are involved in drugs and dealing. And as i had to warn a neighbour recently about two black guys smoking dope in her building, a quite frightening event when you consider that it was dark and she was alone. On being challenged they muttered expletive and moved on, no one can tell us how they got into the building as it has a security door.

Aww, em ... that sounds horrid.

Well, all towns and areas have less desirable elements.

You have to learn to avoid them, don't you.

All the joys of living in a village, after living most of my life in the capital.

We also have a very safe area although I once surprised a gang trying to dig badgers out and was very thankful they scarpered.

Almost like living in down-town Chicago compared with jake-the-pegs's village. :0)
