What the hell how have I never seen this! This is so good
Hahaha thank you! It was a uni project x
Jesmond, Shieldfield and Sandyford used to be family orientated areas, where I grew up with loads of friends, now there are no families, no kids, nowhere to park, property too expensive, noise is so disrespectful, parties every other night.... when you have 3-5 students in one property, which used to be family properties they should show respect, front doors getting slammed and taxis pulling up all night and morning with drunk people shouting! Not being a business owner, they are nothing but cheeky and a headache to me. Different neighbours every year so they don't care who they upset, just move on the year after...
My mother moved away from Sandyford 20+ yr ago for these reason. Now it's horrible, hundred times worse!
And 100% they have helped the spread of covid coronavirus in Newcastle, these are supposed to be well educated aspiring intelligent young people who are this country's future, the amount of student gatherings over the last 10 months proves they don't respect the area or its people! I've seen proper house party's regularly, when I can't even visit my own mother! That sums it up really !
I am sorry you have had a bad experience with students in Jesmond. I lived there for two years of my Uni career and I can say for certain that my house mates and I were never disrespectful to our neighbours. Of course some students represent us badly which is unfair on us as for the most part, we are well behaved and respectful. Plus this was filmed well before Covid so I can'r comment on that. Thank you for watching and replying. All the best x
@@cecilia-joyadamou2074 That’s good to hear, really wish you guys stayed in my street then hehe, obviously not all students are bad, my nephew was in a huge property with about 6 students, he wouldn’t let me in unless I took me shoes off!!! I was offended at 1st, “You cheeky litt....” Then I stopped and thought about it for a sec.... I then had to compliment him 😥 an said “If all students were like you guys, it’d be great” he then explained that’s why they all set rules, if you broke them, you got voted out 😂!
Parking is always going to be an issue for residents too, people’s lived here for 50+yrs now they can’t even park in their own street lol
Xmas and summer is good cos they flock back home, and locals can get parked.
In the short video you did however, I failed to see any families, youths or toddlers, mainly students, elder residents Ann business owners! Unfortunately I don’t think we will ever see the likes again
And COVID was an eye opener for me! Most people I heard flaunting the rules weren’t from here, therefore not abiding by COVID restrictions, and giggling about it, many of our loved ones have now passed away from it
I steer clear of them whenever possible lol
Unfortunately this was a uni project so we only had limited time but would have loved to interview more people! We did interview a business owner and he loved the business that student brought and had unfortunately had to close down since Covid ):
@@cecilia-joyadamou2074 Thought they may have thrived doing takeaways... but thats sad to hear...
Hope your project went well anyway, it looked good, and to be fair, it was about students and not kids, and I hope uni was successful for you
Good luck x
@@cecilia-joyadamou2074 it's really a mixed bag. I have a student flat next door to my property (about a 30second walk away from the Methodist church where you interviewed the JRA lady). Some years the students are perfect and you'd barely know they are there. Other years you get a group that has loud gatherings multiple times a week. It can be annoying but I generally let them get on with it unless it's getting really ridiculous. When it goes on past about 2am and I have to be up for work at 6am and then it happens again later in the week then it becomes a problem.
I live near the metro station and have a student flat next door and many others nearby. Some years the students are perfectly considerate but every now and again you get a flat that will be having parties multiple times a week and a few times this has gone on till past 6am. I generally just let them get on with it but have had to contact the police a couple of times. Some are just incredibly selfish. A couple of years ago we even had a student knock at our front door at around 12am and force his way inside our flat and refuse to leave... He was convinced he was in his own place and wouldn't leave. We had to physically force him outside. The guy had clearly taken some sort of substance (wasn't alcohol). I understand the students benefit the economy in the local area but the area used to be full of families and there were just as many shops back then.
Paul Smith What's it like for parking there? It's horrendous where I am, up to 5 people in some houses in my street, I have to park streets away some days. And is there much noise currently? In my local pub just before this lockdown, students were all laughing and joking about not being from the same household and who's house were they all going to at 10pm for a corona party. Pretty shocking really, these are our future Drs, politicians etc....
It’s mostly Londoners and southerners from down south that are loud and ignorant. They have no respect for anyone
Wow, very professional Cecilia
I do property maintenance in a lot of these student properties, and I must say 90% of them are disgusting. The grime and dirt i see is unbelievable, how they can live like that is beyond me 🤮🤮🤮
Many of the properties are not maintained as well as they should be by landlords and when I moved into my house in second year, it look like it hadn’t been decorated in 30 years, upturned carpet, curtains hanging on the bar by a thread and a boiler that didn’t work. We deep cleaned the house when we moved in and out but tbh I think many of them need a good decoration!
@@cecilia-joyadamou2074 totally understand, it's more the dirt & three weeks worth of dishes I see, manky floors, Not the mention the toilets and the showers 😲 😲
I do feel sorry for you having to clean the toilets of students - especially the all boys houses!
@@cecilia-joyadamou2074 mainly boys yes. Crazy. I don't clean mind 😂 I try and repair or replace the crap 🤐
Yep I was helping decorate a student property for my painter an decorator friend, the students had kindly left poo all over the flat, the beds, the bath, door handles, I couldn't work there, I had to leave, lost a days work, and told him I'm not painting anymore student properties, so he hired someone else.
2:12 fantastic improv. Hundreds of people at a house party... Is it a manor house!?! 🤣 Great video :)
The “Jesmond Student” is so irritating. So arrogant with a right chip on their shoulder. Newcastle should be for the Geordies. We should be giving more local residents access to university places
Shut up you tart.
Mike Spilligan I'm 66 and still a student of this temporal life, but a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven. No more keys locks or or pain or lies or foolish decisions or opposition to the Truth that frees from dis ease. May they learn their identity as God meant it to be! For He's not a system, yet in the fulnes of time offered no resistance. To fulfil His mission, so He didn't abort it He died as He taught it! And His return looms more imminently. Without Him we are nothing and can do nothing. But His amazing grace will get you a place in those eternal habitations where there are no more questionable relations or acquaintances for love just is!
