I've done nothing to piss off anyone.
Can't sell the house. Been in the family 35+ years. It is 125+ years old and heritage listed. Used to be the St David's Anglican Rectory(whatever that is)
Has big brick walls out front, secondary brick wall, used to be the local post office that my late father ran. On a big block 1400m2 I think. No neighbours, area is now commercial. Fire station within 75m, Pub within 150m but they all old fellas. Bottleshop and Woolworths within 50-100m.
Big change was the 24hr servo. They had so much crime now you can only talk to the cashier through a little window after a certain time.
The problem is the amount of foot traffic that comes past. And mostly when I've watched young loud drunken idiots - which the law would barley touch.
Anyway... I don't think a dog would last long around here. Most animals I've had have got out and run over.
So I'm going the Fort Knox approach. Pain in the arse but I just need the piece of mind.
