    Crap Town/village: Redditch

    80,000 population, 16 miles from Birmingham, three prisons, no cinemas, one nightclub and its idea of art culture is six or seven paintings by local artists hung in the library.

    Voted by The Word on channel 4 as the most boring place in the known universe.



    ... It's still full of fucking inbreds though :)

    Unemployment in Wolverhampton is, of course staggeringly high and the city is so divided along class and racial lines that it is hardly a city at all but a collection of tribal groupings. Some of its outlying suburbs (such as Heathtown) are terrifying concrete wastelands too terrible to describe (Heathtown is where the people of Wolverhampton go to die).

    In the evenings, the smell of hops from Banks's Brewery permeates the town like the stench of a trapped animal slowly decaying in a drain pipe.

    LOVE IT :D

    its a fix though... huddersfield escaped :spangled:

    Those who communicate in grunts and sniffs revel happily in the squalid surroundings. There is a night club called 'Mardi Gras' where squaddies from miles around congregate to chase fat single mums and stamp on peoples' heads. A small town with small minds, I challenge anyone to put 'darlo' in a positive light.

    :lol:

    he's got mardis number!!

    bojangles tho.. :love:

    Yet on another list it says

    BARNSLEY (South Yorkshire)

    My Sister lived just outside Barnsley for about a year and I have to say it is one of the roughest places I have ever been to. There are no jobs, the town centre is full of graffiti and boarded up windows and the people have no ambition and are abusive - my sister was forced out by continual theft and abuse. Some of the folk there are genuinely nice and respectful but they are few and far between, other than this the other good points it has are the nightlife (pubs, nightclubs, easy women) and the fact everything is so cheap (food, drink, housing, cars etc) there is a reason to this though - no-one earns anything, 80% of Barnsley folk are manual workers, everytime I see someone in a fluorescent yellow jacket I think of Barnsley because thats all I saw when I was there!

    On the list Liams Aberdeen gets a mention:

    3. ABERDEEN (Aberdeenshire)

    I was looking forward to my trip to the 'Granite City' but I wouldn't go back ever - the people I came across were the rudest, most aggressive and obnoxious I've ever met. I like Scotland and It's people and want to see it prosper but Aberdeen folk hate the English with passion, why can't they forget the ills of the past and just live their lives, in fact they hate Glaswegians too, I dont know what it is - maybe jealousy ? I had the misfortune to wear an English football shirt in Aberdeen and I got dogs abuse and was even rounded on! The fact the place is constantly below freezing, cars constantly zooming down Beach Boulevard full of under-age drivers and it's taxi drivers are downright rude means that Aberdeen sucks in my view.

    Not strictly a town, but it is undisputed armpit of the nation. Main toursit attraction? A transport bridge. Poisonous industrial fumes drift down one dismal, windy road. Outsiders will be lucky to leave unbruised.

    boro is so shite haha

    :evil: Grr Hate Aberdeen, lived there for a year. Wouldn't piss on it if it was burning down. They call it the silver city, my chuffin' arse it was grey and depressing. Don't like tarring everyone with the same brush but....Ive never met so many grumpy, rude, & aggressive people in all my life.

    I like Nucastle :love: :king: Moving back in 20 days!
    :D Yipee! :cool2:

    Town: Ormskirk

    The New Year in Ormskirk is greeted by the clock tower in the town centre (reading 3.40pm) plummeting some hapless pisshead daredevil mountaineer to earth in the manner of King Kong in distress. The gunshot crack of shattered pelvis is the signal for the surrounding throng, in keeping with tradition, to kiss a constable as apology for the inevitable arrest at this very spot in the forthcoming year, and a forlorn hope of easier treatment.

    Defunct cultural television train wreck Network 7 once bestowed upon the town the somewhat dubious accolade of top-ten suburban center for getting battered or something, and a celebratory plaque was immediately erected atop the Civic Hall. Unfortunately, it was even more immediately destroyed during the monthly youth disco shenanigans, which, interestingly, served as a training camp for the competing teams that lifted the Calamity Cup in the first place.


    i agreee.....the town which my uni is in is wank....
