don't know why I am posting this here, but anyways.... I'm sat inside on a glorious day because we're not allowed out, we being the residents of a small little town... apparently there were talks of evactuating us all at the weekend and then it was decided it was impossible to evacuate half the town, so we now have police patrolling up and down, a curfew and constant reminders to go home and lock the doors
no one knows quite what is going on except the cops are now sporting guns and there are armed response units flying all about town. You can't sleep atall because there is a constant disturb of sirens blazing, helicoptors whirling over head, people screaming and shouting not to mention loud bangs that sound nothing like cars backfiring. Even if you do make it to the shop, you cross the roads in fear of your life because the police are driving around like rally drivers. In the last week alone we've had 2 bombs go off and 3 bomb scares !!
I'm in the UK, a very small little town in the middle of nowhere, one of those nothing ever happens town which is why we get so upset when a streetlamp bulb burns out..
Apparently it's a neighbourly dispute of some description, but I cannot understand how it could have escalated to what feels like gang land warfare. It may sound extreme but this is what me and my kids are living in the middle of right now
what happened to the days of communication ???????
