        • I’m talking about your comment in regards to owning a car if you lived on Greenwood Crescent. Unnecessary. That’s where this woman lives, have some general respect and keep your snotty opinions to yourself.

          • ITS MY OWN OPINION THAT I WOULD NOT OWN A CAR ON GREENWOOD. BET THE INSURANCE IS SKY HIGH ASWELL WITH ALL THE CRIME IN THAT AREA. HOPE YOU LIVE THERE!

      • Again, no one asked you to. Writing ridiculous comments about an area when a woman has been hurt and could have potentially been worse.
        Get back on Zoopla, keep your search as ‘WA4’ and leave it at that.

          • I’m employed full time, and don’t live in the area mentioned. As for crime, have a look checking some other areas, I know people who live there and it’s actually pretty quiet so since you have had enough time midweek to practically speak to yourself on here, as you’ve commented about 3 times to absolutely nobody. I’d think maybe you need to get a hobby, or a job?

            Also, your English is absolutely abysmal. Capital letters are used at the beginning of a sentence and names. Fingers off the caps lock button Daniel.

        • YAWN. you probably dream about this story tonight. why dont you go live on GREENWOOD then if you like it that much ha ha hhhhaaaarrrrrrr. absolute hilarious
