Again, please read what I've written. I was commenting generally and responding to Pool's claim that people 'love' grot.

They don't.

However if you go back and read many of the usual threads about why and how Forest Hill should change etc etc then you get the same comments picking out things considered to be eyesores. In the past we've had ordinary cafes and even the launderette being criticised for lowering the tone. Pools, I never said you are a snob but I do disagree that things are this black and white. If you are going to claim as much then you should expect some kind of response.
