As Daxy has described here, Birkenhead is full of people who would stab you . I admit I did used to be a little
when I was 15 - 18 years of age. I went through that stage when you want to fight everyone. I am not proud of the things I have done, ashamed actually when I look back. As Lady Luck would have it, I moved out of my old area and got my own house off my grandad, met a bird and settled down.I stopped hanging round with the old crowd and only kept my close unit of 3 best mates. Since then I have met new friends and go out with them. I have more fun now than I ever did, being a
on the street.I had a few scraps, but the lads I used to hang around with would pick fights for nothing, I remember one night in Wigan, about 20 of us went that Wigan Pier club, had a cracking night and then outside waiting for the mini bus , about 10 of our lads jumped 3 lads FFS. Scenes like that weren't uncommon. It was fecking bang out of order. Of course I enjoyed hanging round with them but I was on a slippery slope.
Another few lads I know got stabbed outside Rocky's one night about a year ago. One stabbed in the chest, one in the neck and one in the face. One was very servere and was in Intensive care. Thats just not the life I want now.
Occasionally in Birkenhead on a night out, I will get some little
, recognising me and kickin off, but I would much rather get out and go home than end up with a bottle in me.
) and never got a hint of trouble. i think it's the kind of place where you're not that likely to find trouble unless you're looking for it. everybody over here reckons toxteth's some kind of no-go zone, whereas in reality it's like the f*ckin french riviera compared to salford, longsight, moss side, cheetham hill etc
