Dealers also used to work in Oxford road between Trill and Station roads, but not so much after OBSCID set up on the corner for a little while.
The dealers are usually on Lower Main Road, near the clubs. The problem is the no of dependent people who are starting to struggle a bit and cry in the road. In one instance last week, a woman in Trill Road sat in the street to cry. When a motorist slowed down to avoid colliding with her she hit his bonnet and shouted that he was bringing drugs into Observatory. He got out of his car and she screamed "Don't hit me! You're always hitting me!" The man was of course completely humiliated. The dealers have been working for quite some time. It's getting a bit much now!
