Union Street, not a place for children.Graffity freshly painted on the cold mossy walls; chewing gum and dogs mess populate the street. The cumbering pavement is forgotten about. The smell of urine makes you gag you can taste the filf as you try to get some fresh air. Cars listlessly wait for their drunken owners.

Stray cats root threw the bins to try find scraps of kebab and thrown out restaurant food. School children push and shove o be the first one to get the best seat on the bus. Cars hoot their horns and shout at the idiot who decides to over take the car in front even though there is no room. Cleaners come out...
