    Bloody hell. I often think I would rather live in those beautiful houses than my crappy flat. Perhaps this is a lesson to be thankful for what you have.

    What you mean like the kind you get in a cheapo early 2000s development that built flats that have bathrooms with no windows? That kind of black mould?

    Except it's in a Victorian terrace and your flat is half underground which makes the damp even worse

    Eugh. I never really considered that they’d all been converted to flats. I think I may have visited one a long time ago to fix a Councillors broadband.

    You'd be among the few able to return home - all but the end houses have been issued with dangerous structure notices.

    Road is still closed, looks like it will be for some time yet.

    Considering the road outside St Toms collapsed a few years back, you’d think they might have done some due diligence on the area
