i lived on king street and trafalgar road for many years, in that time i was physically attacked on more than one occasion. I was verbally abused nearly everyday often by kids no older than 10, many times by little teenage scrotes who deserve no more than a damn good kicking. I had excrement thrown at my windows , windows smashed, my door violently kicked night after night and no end of other abuse ! the reason ? for looking a bit different and having locks  ! Sorry not a place id ever move back too, you can do what you like with the area, buildings and public areas but you cant remove the ... that destroy eveything people work towards. Shame most of the upcoming generation have no interest in living and looking after the area they live in On a lighter note,I love what you have done with the land in traflea. Urban gardening in the community is a great way to pull together and bond as a community. I wish you all the luck going forwards with it.

Thankyou for the positive comments. You're absolutely right there is a point when things start to look good and improve the area, you really wouldnt believe how many people now come to us and ask us to make up their hanging baskets for the spring and summer, we also try and open a stall every Tuesday to try and sell tomato plants, flowers etc to people passing by, so we're also now self funding  You'd be amazed at how little vandalism there has been and a lot of the good comments that we get are from 'the chav brigade' who say 'thats a sound garden'.. We also try and hold events for our community there too, we did a free BBQ for the Royal Wedding. We also made sure that the local children get something back out of our garden and designed it in mind. We planted strawberry plants right round the edge of the garden and told the local children they could pick the ones that they can reach through the fence  I know that there are many problems in the area and I can sympathize completely, I have had all sorts of trouble at my door, one particularly lovely person offered to petrol bomb my house with my children in it... there are lots of problem families about, people have seen me ranting on this forum on many occasions about crime, antisocial behaviour etc etc. There are several reasons why I dont move. 1. I wont let them force me or my family out. 2. I have the best neighbours 3. I love where I live warts amd all. 4. there is a community here and I'm part of it. 5. when there is trouble in our neighbourhood every one of the neighbours comes out and makes a stand to support each other no matter what.

Just had a look on Google streetview and every shop is either boarded up or is a fast food or small business type thing. Was it 'Battyre'?
Well done though Handbag, you deserve an award.

So important, most of the idiots are whimps and bottle it when they realise they aren't a gang against just one individual.

Am I right in thinking it's not Rocket Ronnie's anymore?

Pretty sure someone mentioned in passing that it'd been taken over. I may be wrong. Just interested to know if it's closed or been taken over.

It's not Rocket Ronnies any more. I went past it today and it was all white and pastel colours  Can't remember what the name was but I think it began with an O.

Ah OK, it may be that it's under new ownership or something.
If you don't mind, could you give me the heads up when you know?
Cheers
