A nasty shock

I live right in the centre of Prague - a few hundred metres from Vaclavske Namesti. On my way home from work everyday I walk through a small park in front of the main railway station - the park is known locally as Sherwood and is generally populated by bums and petty thieves. Recently the local council built a fenced in playground for kids, and two mornings out of the last four there have been used syringes in the doorway of my apartment building. Prague has lost another element of the lustre it once had.
