The street where I live
I know in the lyric meme I did a little while ago I described my neighbourhood as
Who lives in a house like this
Who lives in a house like this
In number 18 there lives a big
Butch queen
He's bigger than Tyson and he's twice
As mean
In 666 there lives a Mr. Miller
He's our local vicar and a serial killer
(Space - Neighbourhood)
Now, when I put this I wasn't being entirely serious. I mean yes, we do have a few weirdos like the drunk next door, the neighbour that digs up your plants the minute you turn your back, the guy who has manic depression (though it wouldn't be politically correct of me to call him a weirdo - lets just say he is not "normal") the woman with 20 deranged kids and there are a few other strange folks in our road - me included. But let me get to the point, our street, in a little village, is going to have its own CCTV installed. They are putting them up in a lot of places now but this street is not a crime hotspot, we have very few burglaries, car crime etc. It is generally quite a peaceful place to live. Now what has got me annoyed is the fact that this is a residential area with little crime, what a waste of money. We don't have facilities for our teens; the money could have surely been better spent there. The small amount of crime we do get is because the teens are bored! Another thing that I am a little annoyed/pissed off about is the fact if they do erect this pole to hold the camera it could well be outside my kitchen window. WTF? They'll know that I do the washing up in my underwear and that I cook a full dinner at 3am! lol It will feel intrusive. Someone potentially watching your every move. The whole thing just seems a waste of time and money and do we not have enough of Big Brother?!
