It's been a while since I posted anything on my home town, so I thought I'd give an update. Many of units which became vacant because of The Madness still stand empty, especially the larger ones. Those that do now have tenants all have an ethnic slant, such as foreign minimarkets. To my horror, one unit in a prominent, central location is now a fried chicken shop of some description.
The number of non whites continues to increase, and standards overall have plummeted - no longer do people dress up in their finery at the weekend. Add to that, the likelihood of an attractive woman catching my eye is pretty well nil. Tattoos, piercings and obesity continue to increase amongst young women.
At work, the situation is intolerable, and the mantra "Import the 3rd world, become the 3rd world" definitely applies. In years gone by, inspections in my department rapidly became informal chats, with the clipboard forgotten, on account of the high standards maintained - now, I'm embarrassed to admit to working where I do.
As I've mentioned before, youtube footage of my home town from a few decades back is like another world.
