It was customary to walk down the street and see kids smashing up phone boxes. I kept myself to myself and was okay.

Manchester is such a grim place though and there is that undertow of menace always boiling under the surface. Things can kick of over nothing, very easily. I don't have any good advice really, but I'm sorry to hear that you are having an unlucky run of things. The UK has a large underclass of savages and they really bring the tone down for those who just want to live their lives peacefully.
Yes there is alot of places in Manchester that are just full of dick heads, who are just brought up by there parents to be utter scum, i mean when i was a kid i was a bit mischevious like any other kid but thesedays its just sad to see, in mean Salford is pretty bad but not as bad as south Manchester.
