Blackpool: The shallow genepool Capital of Britain

Is 3539325982_4ef9592b59_z a nice place to live or is 3539325982_4ef9592b59_z rough?

Recently, I typed the term ‘Blackpool ****’ into Google and found an excellent article on this site. Whilst very true, I have become so disillusioned with Blackpool over the years that I thought I would add my thoughts. Yes, the title of my article may come across as a little harsh but really, this place […]

Brierfield. Pendle’s Melanoma

Is Brierfield a nice place to live or is Brierfield rough?

Briefield, aka Chavistan or Brierstan (as used by the local Asian youths before you go off on your racial high horse) is the thorn in the side of one of England’s most beautiful countryside districts. The witches of Pendle have evolved and settled in this once industrial town to produce some of the most dysfunctional […]

Culcheth is a hole roughly equidistant between Liverpool and Manchester

Is Culcheth a nice place to live or is Culcheth rough?

Well where do I start? Culcheth is a hole roughly equidistant between Liverpool and Manchester, and as it’s in commuter reach of both these “fair” cities, property prices over the last 25 years have ran out of control, making it eternally unaffordable for the offspring of local people. It’s popular with fat accountants, drug dealers […]

Mawdesley. Home to every boss you hated.

Is Mawdesley a nice place to live or is Mawdesley rough?

You won’t have heard of Mawdesley. No one has. Even people in surrounding villages refuse to acknowledge the existence of this lifeless non-place. It’s as though even thinking of the existence of such a deadened little place causes a little part of you to die. Even wildlife seems to give the area a wide berth. […]

Wigan, the locals take no pride in their health or appearance

Is 2575738068_ab80b978f8_z a nice place to live or is 2575738068_ab80b978f8_z rough?

Wigan is a small town and has beenn compared with Bolton and Leigh (but Leigh is bigger and better in almost every way). The council has wanted Wigan to become a city – that has to be a complete joke! Wigan has a huge alcohol problem which is pathological; that is all that young men […]

The sad decline of The North

Is The sad decline of The North a nice place to live or is The sad decline of The North rough?

It angers and saddens me a great deal to read the many obituries of once proud working and mining towns like Barnsley, Rotherham, Sheffield, Middlesbrough, Sunderland etc on this site. These were all places I was familiar with as a very young man back in the late 1970s and places I loved to visit and […]

Shaw, trapped between Oldham & Rochdale like a fart between bum cheeks

Is Shaw a nice place to live or is Shaw rough?

I would like to begin by doffing my cap to the outstanding wordsmiths who have inspired me to post a review of the Shaw. On entering Shaw, slotted firmly between the cultural hotbeds of Oldham and Rochdale (Somewhat like a stifled farted trapped between the **** cheeks of a skinny jeans wearing Emo), one is […]

Sale, Cheshire, a black hole of misery and despair

Is Sale a nice place to live or is Sale rough?

Sale is a god awful town on the edge of Cheshire and Lancashire.It boasts sights such as the Racecourse council estate, a variety of charity shops and charming locals. Sale is possibly the most depressing place you will ever come across. The abundance of street performers with little or no talent will astound you. My […]

Farnworth used to be a nice place to live in the 60/70’s

Is Farnworth a nice place to live or is Farnworth rough?

Farnworth used to be a nice place to live in the 60/70’s. Good Community feel, nice neighbours, with a sense of belonging. Not any more. It has become a dumping ground for the dregs of society that no-one else wants or cares about. Orange single Mums, pushing several kids about, the whole Family in Pyjamas, […]

Edgeley: The Land of Hopes and Dreams

Is Edgeley a nice place to live or is Edgeley rough?

Edgeley, possibly one of the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport’s most overlooked suburbs, despite housing both it’s train station and it’s high quality football team. The Wikipedia definition of Edgeley states it is a suburb “made up of council estates and Victorian terrace houses”. This is very close minded and factually incorrect. It also has a […]
