The Northern Invasion.

Its noticeable around the pubs these days that there seem to be a large number of people in the village from areas north of Birmingham. Merseyside seems to be a particular place of origin for many of the newcomers and Silverton is beginning to sound more like Bootle then the Exe valley. You wonder how all these people get to hear about us. Does Silverton feature on some website somewhere where Scousers can pick their dream destination, if not in the sun, at least well away from some of the more obvious social problems that affect Liverpool and its surrounding towns.

Although from what one hears some of the incomers bring their problems with them. I suspect this is a subject that may well be pursued another day.
