Poor Nell, so unhappy .. so which category are you then, seeing as you are now a resident ?

I am unable to find one for myself as above, or most of friends, colleagues, neighbours and relatives.

Has something happened to you recently Nell to cause you to feel this way?

We were vandalised a few weeks ago, (one of many times)i just hate how they can just come and do what they want. My daughters brand new bike that she used to do the paper round on, and i cant afford to fix it.

We live around the corner from the family who did it,they call us in the street and we have to walk past them evryday from school. I say things back, but the children are always there and i'm not getting embroiled in a slagging match in the street.

My daughter gets picked on because of the clothes she wears (must be Nike and Addidas how dare she break the rules!)

People assume things here, they take one look and assume.

I have lived all over too, i moved here from Blackburn and have lived down south. I know there are good people out there but i dont meet many of them.
Have you ever heard of passing on a smile?
I try to do it all the time, so if some one smiles at you in the street, smile back, and pass it on :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

Its already been said there are much worse places to live... we do when needed still have a good community spirit.
The views are first class ( if you get out of town) , we are near to the coast and the city... For most of the time life is good in fact very good in Accrington:

It always comes as a bit of a shock when you get people who live along side you and they do the dirty on you......it really doesn't help when the law doesn't support the victims, but seems to be on the side of the perpetrators.
Everyone has pointed out that where ever you go, there will be people who are evil and will take(usually from those who have little to take anyway) what they want rather than earn it.
I think most folk in the area are genuine and are just trying to make as good a life as possible for themselves and their family....much as you are trying to do. Don't let this episode make you bitter.....because if you do then the evil people have scored a victory.... they haven't just stolen your property, they have stolen your confidence and your self worth. Don't let it happen. I wish for you better times...and I know it won't help much, but I am sending you a hug(((((((((((((((((((((((((x))))))))))))))))))))) )))))).

Why do I like Accy??

Its in a beautiful part of the world, there are far more nice areas than bad, its location is superb, (25 mins from M/c city centre if ou want that, 45 mins from sea, 30 mins gets you to any of 6 major market towns and as I said, its beautiful countryside). Also you have a far better chance of buying a nice house in a good area here than in a heck of a lot of places. Julie and I are very lucky, we bought our house in a lovely area before the prices went crazy but even now, if you picked our house up and dumped it in Knutsford(where I work) or down south(where I've just come back from) it would be worth at least another 120-150K than it is in Accy. Likewise even at the lower end of the housing market, people I speak to can't believe that you can still buy a house for under £60K.

Peopel aren't all scrotes, it sounds like you have a couple of bad neighbours, just remember that there are lots of nice decent people out there, ignore the scum and look out for the nice ones we are all out here waiting!

Re: Tell Me Why You Like Accy?
 

We love Accy mostly because of the people here. We have made some wonderful friends and now view it has home.
There are far worse places to live. At least in Accy most of the natives are a friendly bunch.
The only thing I miss about Our old town is my Family and wish I could persuade them to move here but MUMMIBOO say's " It's too cold in the winter and too quiate."

She seems to think so Willow but can't say that I have noticed.

Re: Tell Me Why You Like Accy?
 

Willow, one of the first thinks that stuck me when I first came home was how cold it was. When I think back we where a much hardier bunch when we live in Accy. By hell you know when the wind blows....Still love it.
