I would like to make an alteration to my 2004 To Do List, if I may;
3. Move your goddamned ass out of Hatfield bloody *NOW*
Thank you.
Someone else was shot in the Town Centre last night.
Correction:Not shot. Stabbed apparently.
Why the personal drama? Don't I know crime happens all the time?
Well, because there's only about twenty shops in Hatfield...it's not exactly a bustling metropolis, but there've been two shop shootings in the last three months, and they found a shallow grave round here the other day.
Add to this the fact that there are thirteen burnt out cars and five motorcycles within five minutes walk of my house, and you'll get closer to where I am at the moment.
I'm from the Isle of Wight.
The most dramatic thing that happens round my way is a little lighthearted smuggling and grannies growing pot in their back gardens. Add to this the fact that a woman throwing her pet iguana at a bouncer (for not letting her into the pub with it) made front page news back home, and that my all-time favourite headline for the local paper is 'Accident-prone horse falls in cesspit', you can see that this is all a bit too different from back home.
I miss Craggy Island.
Poor you! (sorry) Hatfield isn't that nice a place is it? I often use the pool there and thats not too bad and I spose you do have the galleria but otherwise its a bit (dont think this is quite the right word!) seedy.
The sad thing is that my Grandparents live in nearby Welwyn Garden City and think that Hatfield is great!
Wow...sounds a bit ghetto (at least that's what we'd call it here in Los Angeles). I lived in Hollywood many years ago and the most active crack cocaine corner was one block from my apartment along with everything that goes with an active drug trade. It gets old after a while, you start to want more peace and less insanity. Best of luck with changing locals.
And to think people assume that only happens here in America. *tsk tsk*
Here's wishing your 2004 To Do List comes to fruition for you!
wow. sounds like you're living near hell's mouth? God, and I thought Skegness was bad;) Take care anyway because I think this blog is great:))
