Never mind the area, what are you like? I'm sure the people living there would like to know you aren't some sort of grot pot that's going to drag the place down, can you supply references? Will you be an enhancement to the area? Or will you just turn out to be someone that doesn't care about their neighbours with an "I'm alright Jack sod you sort of attitude?".

It's a small/medium sized supermarket that sometimes has a very good deal on fruit and veg.

That's exactly what I have told my kids kate, but my eldest did point out that her younger sister as a somewhat appetight for White Wine, I did try to shift the blame, but she wasn't having it

Re: devonshire street area

Restless, if your a decent person you`ll fit in well. I`ve lived here for 47 years and most of my neighbours used to babysit me!! We all keep an eye out for each other and any undesirables who move don`t usually last long as we know who the landlords are round here, and they get told in no uncertain terms!

Well if i do get the house i just hope my next door neighbours bathroom is next to what will be my music room so they only have to listen to my crappy music whilst having a crap


reason i asked.

My friend's GF's sister used to live on there a few years ago and she had to move because of apparent trouble she was having. The same people moved down church near to where my friend was living and his house was burgled and said people are suspected to have done it. He had heard they had moved back around the area and well may as well ask see if anybody living in the area knows if its quiet or that there is trouble.... but i guess you get trouble everywhere
