I may be moving to Thorpe Hamlet soon, seems great, close to train
station and riverside complex. Can anyone give me an idea of what the
area around Ella Road is like; ie. noisy, trashy etc. Anyone know
anything about the Psychiatric place on Ella Road, Ellacombe?

Would really appreciate some feedback. Thanx in anticipation

It's a wonderful place, ignore the rubbish people keep saying about the
nuclear power station and the GM crops, I don't think they will make a scrap
of difference. Or all the fuss about the by pass, it's just a rumour

Yes and the people at the adjacent asylum reception centre are *not*
happy about it. I mean, Sainsbury's are so much more expensive than
Tesco's and they don't take the vouchers. This has a knock on effect
with the nearby brothel as the punters don't have enough money.

No they found him. It was the Chief Constable.

That's right, especially as it is in the shape of an erect phallus. Mind
you, the council reasoned that it would compliment the sign for the nearby
club 'the Cherry Lips' which they have just granted a 24 hour licence.

No, that wasn't him, the Preying Mantis is still at large. Apparently, of
the seventeen local serial killers, the police say that the 'Mantis' is
probably the least danger to the public. Rumour has it that 'the Gang-Rape
Brain-Sucking, Bike Thieves' are top of the list.

Ignore them all, Neil, the local Satanist coven will be happy to welcome you
