i was born in stapleton avenue speke in the flats oppite the old park,your right about leaving your front door open the neighbours all looked out for one another and they would all help each other out they were always skint but no one went hungry.as a teenager iwould hang around the corners with boys and girls if we where making to much noise the man of the house would come out and ask us to keep the noise down we dersent answer them back as you would get a clip around the earhole, but we had respect for our elders,try that today and you dont no what will happen.as for gangs we had rivarly gangs on different corners and yes they would fight but as you said with there fists not wepons,and it would be one on one not half a dozen or more on one.i had the best years of my life growing up in speke and lovely memories, in the flats all the kids would get together and we would have a game of rounders against the mums and dads, can you see the mums and dads of today doing that i think not speke will never ever be the same sad to say.
