# Don't live near there
Too many pikey students and the like ;)

Saying that, I spent 12 months living in Walker...Now that was fun.

I happen to live just along the road from the best Indian Takeaway I have ever experienced.

# Oi

*looks outside*

Oh yeah, fuck.

Living within spitting distance of the Byker Wall, the occasional burned-out car, having 12 year olds pull knives on you, being threatened with a shotgun...Yup...Walker was a real nice place ;)

Actually, the only thing I do miss is the Italian chip shop at the top of Dunstanburgh Road...Best. Chips. Ever.

# It's not as good as it used to be
Although I've not been in ages because of that so I could now be wrong and it may now be better than it used to be.

Luckily I'm far enough from Byker :)

# Thats the thing...
Where I was was bad...but it was still the 'nice' part of Walker...I fear for people living further down into Walker :/

PS: if anyone is feeling low, perhaps if they think that they aren't good enough...Get the number 12 bus from Wallsend through Walker and the Byker Wall. The sheer depravity and physical failure of those that will join you on this bus will astound you. Not to mention the obvious dubiousness of how far they take the phrase 'keep it in the family'.
