Oh, Jim, Jim, Jim. You really are behind the times. I moved from the hell hole last September. When they started building the so-called STADIUM for the games they moved all the trash out of Clayton, openshaw, Beswick and other parts of the Manchester slums and sent many to Droylsden [no "e" in the middle]. So, along with many others, got out. I moved to Staffordshire near to my Cuz, Pamela. Actually moved on the 11 September and watched the disasters on TV in a local pub whilst waiting for the removal van to arrive.
