Hello all,


I have had an increasing worry about the chruch-like-building at the top of Barry Road, before the traffic lights. Sorry Im unsure what this place is, maybe a hostel?


I am an 18 year old girl and everytime I walk past this place to go to the bus stop for work, I am pestered by the men standing outside. I have been trying my best to ignore their comments and keep my head down, however last nigth I was coming home from a friends house (around 11pm) and one man stopped me in the street and said he'd seen me earlier in the day walking my dog (which is true) but of course I hadnt noticed him.


He asked me my name and I know I should have made one up but I just wanted to get home and I told him my real name. As I walked away he started shouting my name and saying 'I'll see you again!'

Now I am constantly worried about walking past this place incase this man shouts my name. I know I could get a 197 or a 12 to the top of the road but if Im in a hurry for work I dont want to be waiting around for a bus to go one stop.


Anyway I was just wondering if anyone else had been bothered by these people or if anyone has any ideas of what I can do?


Thanks.

      Annoying words that have cropped up in our language

      By fishboy · Posted

      One more while I'm here, although more of the way a word is used, and whilst possibly pedantic it really does annoy me!! "Dilemma" Constantly used to describe any tricky decision, but the definition is a decision with only two options, both of which will have an equally bad outcome.  So a choice of whether to have cake, ice cream or chocolate is NOT A DILEMMA!!! See also "Decimate", which means to reduce by 10%, not just general widespread destruction... 😖

      Stolen - Cannondale Topstone 4

      By fishboy · Posted

      So sorry to hear this, makes me so angry that some scumbag thinks they can just take someone's transport, freedom, enjoyment away, and there's so little chance of them being caught or punished adequately.  If you haven't already, register it on BikeRegister and change the status to stolen, hopefully if any responsible person considers buying it then they'll check there first.  Report it to the Police - very little chance they're able to do anything, but it's important for the stats, which may eventually provoke action by the gov? Set up search alerts on Gumtree, eBay & Facebook Marketplace, but try to be as generic as possible - often they are listed as just "road bike" rather than the exact model.  I've also printed out flyers and dropped off at local bike shops in case the bike is brought in for repairs, but not sure how worthwhile that was. Hope this helps...

      JP Plastering - John McCann - Recommended Plasterer

      John has done a fantastic job plastering our bedroom. He boarded the ceiling & window bay then plastered both and the two remaining walls.  He always turns up on time and gets straight down to work, and leaves the room clean & tidy after. I thoroughly recommend John for any plastering work.
