Crap towns

I didn't think they went that fast.

They do go faster when they have Gillette razor cartridges and bottles of spirits from Quality Save hidden under their blanket; )

Not far away from Peterlee is the shithole of Grangetown which is part of the wider shithole, Middlesbrough. I used to visit there regularly, the kids played a version of “chicken”. They would wait for a bus coming round the corner of a street at slow speeds then run in front of it until the bus started to gather speed then get out of its way, it’s a god forsaken place, utter shithole.

so you missed out on the delights of Haverton Hill? Lucky you.

I've been to New Delhi before and let me tell you, some areas in there were disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. Proper, vomit-inducing disgusting.

Still nicer than Wrexham. What a dump. And that was after they did it up too.

I forgot Portsmouth. Somehow managing to be both historic naval town and 60/70's concrete jungle in two easy swoops. If anyone remembers the away days we used to have there in the 80's then they will have fond memories of the welcoming locals, the rundown nature of the place and the stupid fucking accent.

tbf I'd assume the concrete jungle element isn't their fault more an attempt to fill gaps created by the Luftwaffe?

We have loads in the North West.Run down shitholes inhabited by zombies,the feckless or the workshy.

what workshy? Highest number of people in employment and record low unemployment totals remember?

How bad is it now then ?

They call those infamous MT scrotes(in neighbouring valleys) Valley commandos for a reason.

Rhyl used to be a great place 60s 70s bit into the 80s but like so many seaside towns with the advent of cheap holidays and caravan parks, now empty high street and shabby, all the guest house and flatlet houses were converted to HMO etc which bought a lot of anti social behaviour drugs crime etc but now loads of investment county council and euro money have spent 0.25 billion quid along the sea front 2 new hotels, large restaurant, re vamp of the pavillion theatre and a new style suncentre. The west end of Rhyl were the fairground was is now a small retail park and the a lot of the streets were we had a lot of slum houses and landlords have been compulsory purchased by the council and demolished and social housing built in place and works to the high street are in the pipeline. The best thing for me is the beach and prom I live 10 mins walk from both love walking dogs on the beach plenty of bins for dog shite too !

Live in Rhyl myself, some good stuff happening.
If people think Rhyl is a shithole they should visit some of the towns and villages along the coast road.
Try a nice visit to Flint or Deaside.
