    I used to live in a house behind the old FÁS building and the amount of people hanging around the back of it at night was unbelievable. Our window was broken by a group of scangers and it took the guards on Angelsea Street 2 hours to get to our place. Another time two drunk guys were sitting outside talking about how they were going to break into our house. My housemate came in and told me and us being two girls in our early 20s locked ourselves into our room and called the guards. They said they'd be down in a few minutes...I didn't hear from them again at all. So glad to be out of that dive.

    On topic again though, I'm surprised that happened on Douglas Street. Like everyone else, I've never had a problem there at night.
