Heard a story the other week that made my blood boil, was in town for a few afternoon bevs and found ourselves in the lounge at 60 Hope Street swigging Peroni *disclaimer* prices are ludicrous!
Anyhow, they had two pleasant Hungarian ladies working behind the bar and we struck up a conversation with them.
One of the ladies was pregnant and lives with her husband by Eldonian Village, she told me they no longer feel safe in Liverpool and will be moving back to Hungary in the near future. Obviously I asked what had happened to make her feel this way, firstly she told me that after her shift she rides her bike from Hope Street back home, she is constantly faced with youths either jumping out in the road to make her fall off or swerve, or they throw stones at her!
Secondly, and the reason they have had enough, a few months ago at home they noticed a group of kids collecting the ducks/swans from the canal by Eldonian Village and placing them in the middle of Vauxhall Road so the passing traffic would run them over!
The pair of them were obviously horrified at this (as anyone would be) and the husband confronted them, telling them to stop. Needless to say 30 minutes later they are back mob handed (about 15 of them she said) and the husband ends up getting thrown in the canal whilst they throw bricks at him.
She said they are genuinely scared to stay and stuff like this wouldn't happen in Hungary.
Not being funny but what the fook goes through their minds to not only maim an animal deliberately, but then to dry and fookin drown someone who takes exception to you.
Little bastards!
