There have been batches of houses done up in Accrington. They seem to have done them in blocks of half a dozen or more but not necessarily in any consecutive order. This has resulted in odd ones here and there being missed out. They came almost all the way up the road at the back of us and then stopped just short of where it joins our road. When I asked the council what the criteria was for the upgrading they asked me about what we had and said we wouldn't qualify anyway because we've done all the things that other people are getting done for free.

Am I miffed? You betcha I am. As has been said previously it seems totally unfair that people who have tried to maintain and look after their property get nothing when people who have let theirs go to the dogs end up getting all mod cons.
