I live in Chorlton, MP, where I have lived since 1972. It's now super-trendy of course - but that's not my fault (honest!).

I had to take the tram to Salford Royal Hospital (Eccles) recently and it went through the Dockland area. I just about held onto my soul which was nearly sucked out of me! The whole place is so lacking in soul I reckon that it tries to steal the souls of others.

I hope that your Dad is OK.
