There was a gone to the dogs thread but it was closed. The sentiment crops up on here frequently, (not only in regards to crime).

I would phone number 10 but apparently the old occupant ' May' not be there and i am still trying to see if the potential new occupant needs extra sound proofing in the walls. 😁

I have not been back for some time but the last time obviously noticed times have changed, places have changed, people have changed. Odd if you think about it that they would not.
McDonald's, do they not say somewhere that may not be available at all locations, I would not have waited 45 minutes in Salisbury's so could not comment.
Government activities and spending is an interesting one, obviously lots of Business's that I knew have failed, not an option here.

Re: Regressive nation
Well all I can note about the UK is that 11 years of austerity and 3 years of Brexshite has really taken its toll. Income inequity is terrible, is unlikely to ever improve and people (certainly outside of London) have no aspiration. The infrastructure looks tired and is clearly short of investment. Parts of the UK look like they have been attacked by a zombie apocalypse that is still ongoing. The men are fat and pale, the women are fat and orange, the kids are monsters. It's sad to see.
