Laxton's Superb Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 you got 'cordoned' right, though it should have followed the word 'been' as opposed to 'be'.as for the stabbings, not heard a thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 there was one person stabbed at the beach, in the playpark beside the ballroom. It was after an under 18s disco or something. There was another person stabbed on urquhart road the same night I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessHolly Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Ohh thank you for correcting me. I really want to know what happened because I'm nosy like that.All I know is, two people stabbed, one critically ill. But that was yesterday, all might have changed by now.It pisses me off that things don't get put in the papers because of "legal reasons". Then months later after someone's been charged, you hear the whole story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessHolly Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Wow!! That's crazy. The only reasons I'm so curious is because I walk to and from work that way and I like to know if it's likely I may die or not. And to think I was scared to move to London.

Chris Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 I once got chased by someone with a baseball bat across that very same playpark. A group of us were going to the ice disco (we were about 15 or 16 at the time) when someone jumped out of a car, shouted "Lets play baseball" and legged it towards us swinging the bat. I tried to stear clear of the beach on a Friday night after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got followed home from the beach one friday by a group of neds trying to hit me with a seemingly unlimited supply of empty beer cans from across the other side of the boulevard. I found it incredibly hard to keep a straight face as i watched can after can fail to clear the middle of the road, convinced that at some point they would cross the road and close the distance.

Camie Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 You are just asking for a hiding by going to the beach on a Friday or Saturday night it's ridiculous.A guy from my work went to shcool with the two victims. They went to Northfield apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessHolly Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 That's not strictly true Camie, I work most fridays and saturdays and walk home more often than not and I've rarely seen much trouble. The new police curfew has made a huge difference, although god knows what they were up to on friday.Dave Rowlands once got a bottle thrown at him by neds walking up the boulevard. So from then on he walks home via the prostitutes and never gets any trouble. Apparently cars sometimes slow down, realise it's a guy and speed up again, hahaha.

Marillionboy Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Actually Princess, I wouldn't scared about movng to London, people in Scotland are always talking bollocks about how its unfriendly or dangerous and its without a doubt the friendliest and safest city i've ever lived in, largely because most of it is nowadays populated by young people who are not from London and are just there to enjoy life for a few years before returning to Australia, Aberdeen or wherever. Just avoid Brixton and harlesden and any kids in hoodies, which applies to most cities these days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.Pel Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 The underage disco 'hotsteppers', which usually houses itself in Westhill, decided to move to the slightly bigger premises (Beach Ballroom). They underestimated the about of little neds that would turn up and so were understaffed.All wee whippersnappers were held inside by the few 'bouncers'.I guess it was just a clash of people from different areas and an act of 'hardness' but it was to be expected.Just hope it is not too serious.

Smooth_groover Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I don't mean to sound like 'Betty fae doon the road' but it is totaly outrageous that this kind of shit happens on a daily basis these days. I mean for fuck sake, stabbing a random? how old was the guy that got knifed? 16? It's at the stage where, it doesnt matter who you are, where you are, what time your there, why your there, who your there with. "watch yourself, you might die"I dont normaly rant for no reason but for fuck sake....there is just no need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 well aparantly their was a big fight involving around 30 people and the stabbings was a sort of unfinished buisness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth_groover Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 If you want to 'finish buisness' then go at it with your fists...dont take a knife to someones fucking stomach. But then again, the world is a fucked up place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
