Amble: the population of 6,022 is now almost entirely related

Living in Amble, Northumberland

In the 1930s, when the RMS Mauretania was heading up the East Coast of Britain on her last voyage to the breaker’s yard at Rosyth, the town council of Amble sent a telegram to the ship saying “still the finest ship on the seas”. The Mauretania replied with greetings “to the last and kindliest port […]

Carlin How: it’s now like walking through Beirut

Living in Carlin How, Cleveland

I grew up in the small village called Carlin How and I can say that I had a great childhood there, playing down the woods and camping up at “Texas” and all that, it was great! Yet to my surprise, going back there this year I was in shock and awe at what I had […]

Bedale is the red and grey brick cyst on the face of the otherwise picturesque Yorkshire dales

Living in Bedale, North Yorkshire

I must regretfully inform you reader that I have recently returned back to my home town of Bedale, which has recently been placed highly on a poll which lists several of the best market towns in the UK, somehow placed ahead of Mashamand Leyburn. And due to my connections with the town, and evidently by […]

Proud To Be From Keighley? Nah.

Living in Keighley, Bradford

First of all, I’m not surprised that when I search “Keighley” on here, all that pops up is how terrible it is. It’s a shame I have to live here. On my walk home from school, I normally see discarded couches or the average dog poo. The council are too lazy to realise they need […]

Dewsbury- proof that evolution works both ways

Living in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire

After a mere 6 months of living in Dewsbury I still refrain from telling intrigued strangers where I live, instead informing them that I am from Mirfield, the relative haven about 3 miles up the road. Here is why…. 7:30PM: Daylight has left Dewsbury and it is time for me to make my way down […]

Morpeth: Is it really as posh as the posters make it look? No!

Living in Morpeth

Morpeth. Is this town really as posh as the posters make it look? The answer is no. Morpeth is a horrible place to live. By day the town centre is full of stuck up posh twats. But by night it’s full of drunks that walk up and down the high street just looking for a […]

Normanton what a sh*t hole

Living in Normanton, West Yorkshire

I’ve lived in Normanton for over 25 years and I made the biggest mistake of my life moving here. Firstly it’s all about how rude some people are. Walking into town, is like walking into field head prison. Surrounded by mental weirdos. The worst part of Normanton is Smirthwaite, that area is so bad, that […]

Mixed bag for Darlington (Darlo)

Living in Darlington

Darlington is truly a mixed bag. It consists of the best and the worst, and by the worst, I mean you’ll feel like you’re in Mogadishu or Baghdad. Unlike other nearby towns, such as Middlesbrough, Hartlepool or Stockton which are all universally **** throughout, Darlington consists of several okay areas in which you’ll find old […]
