Longford?, my part of the old country! i know it well. The unemployment blackspot of the whole British Isles. Longford makes the poorest parts of Croydon look like Knightsbridge.

Definitely a Sinn Fein working class stronghold in the inner city. Why else has every government tried to gentrify Dublin? I want to say polish a turd but I genuinely feel sorry for the average Dub these days. The place is a bit like Canary Wharf now, with a couple of Shadwells around it. I used to go there every so often, I'd rather spend a night in the cells than bother now. It"s like dodge city, I know the prices of property rocketed there like in London, I had family there, but the gang crime is brutal, I get the sun and mirror online from there, not sure I would feel safe as a tourist wondering about after dark.

Seen as a dumping ground for anti-social types and the longterm unemployable. Google the proceedings of the local courts if you do not believe me.....

I've never had any big trouble. The odd scuffle where I had to knock someone out and get out of Dodge. Like the old days. I think a lot of crime in Ireland is overblown in the media. Then again, last time I stayed in Croydon, I thought it was quite nice. I had a good laugh anyway and the locals seemed genuinely entertained by my shenanigans.

To be fair at least they aren"t worried about there car being stolen!

Yeah, I haven"t had any trouble in Croydon for 30 years, and i"m walking about the centre nearly every day, the media always had a lazy attitude to Croydon, it was either the butt of jokes for being dodgy, or up there with tunbridge wells(purley part of croydon), as being posh !
