  1. I kust love the Cranbrook estate and it is so lucky to be still there if Nu labour had have got there way tree years ago the whole estate would now be a building site with all the nu builds and gated areas that the Swan housing assocation had lined up for it
    it was lucky to have escaped the privatisation that nearly befalled the whole estate
