The man lives in Bath said, ‘there’s no reason for me to go to Bristol.’
‘I wouldn’t come here if I didn’t have to,’ I said.
‘Everytime I put the television on,’ he said, ‘there’s another shooting or mugging or some act of violence or robbery going on.’
‘Don’t turn your television on then,’ I said, ‘you’d be doing us all a favour.’
