Unfortunately not much of a description. A skinny chav in a tracksuit possibly? could be any one of the drug smoking waisters

I, like all decent people, hope that the scumbag who robbed the 64 year old man is soon found and jailed. And wish the man he robbed a speedy recovery.
Pokesdown is a nice place. There is no need for you in another part of the town to worry about us, look after your own patch.

I see you writing daily about all manner of items on the Echo. At least I know of the area I talk about, whilst you know nothing but talk about everything

60 rehab centres ? That is virtually all of the houses in Walpole Road to put it in perspective
Some people continue to believe this flimsy dream
