Minx for the last time, what exact part of South East London do you live in? Of course I know exactly what borough it is but for obvious reasons do not want to be the one to mention it on here. I cannot see your problem to be honest, unless by naming it and people doing a little research they would very easily see, it is a run down part of London that needs a serious lick of paint, and has huge troubles as the riots proved.
You painted this wonderland of an area where you live, and yet the opposite is true Minx, and that is why you won't say where it is.
Don't know where the problem is, you should try living on Thamesmead.
Thanks for your detailed response minx.
I really have led a sheltered life despite spending my formulative years in a city area in northern England.
Minxy, just want to thank you for an excellent series of posts. Too much to comment on really, except to say integration is a bit of a two-way street, as you demonstrate. We're not always very welcoming of immigrants, whether they're first generation or whatever. Some are actually fearful of them, not because of what they do or how they live, but simply because of what they are. They represent the 'other'. Easy to see how and why ghettoisation develops quite often given the attitudes of some 'indigenous' Brits, white flight, social / housing policies that encourage them to an extent, the safety in numbers thing, etc. And then we complain these people live in ghettos and don't integrate. No shit?

Sometimes star, some questions are best not asked in the first place.
I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want to know where minx lived except if they had unwelcome intentions.
Her 'exact' location brought nothing to the discussion and I doubt it would in any other for that matter.
i wouldn't mind knowing where minx lived
but only if she accommodates :rascal:
