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 […]
I’ve lived in Middlesbrough since 2014 and to put it lightly, f*ck this place. Now, I’m not going to generalise here but as a person who grew up in a quaint rural town in the south, moving to Middlesbrough was a shock to me in many ways. The town does have its ups, for example […]
Eastbourne, Eastbourne…where to start? Stinky, ******, utterly without charm. No good shops, disproportionately high numbers of OAP’s and people with addiction/mental health problems. I have lived/worked here for waaay too long (about fifteen years) and am finally escaping in 2017. I work in the town centre, and sometimes feel like a fricking social worker; I […]

When Dante’s Inferno was written all those years ago, the author gave us the most detailed and descriptive account of the nine different circles of Hell. Turns out he missed one. There are in fact 10 levels of Hell, and whilst the 9th circle is commonly thought to be the worst, the tenth circle is […]
I’ve seen many articles on here proclaiming Coventry to be a dump, and, in spite of what the primitive Coventrians in the comments will tell you, I can assure you that all you have read is indeed true: Coventry is a dump. This once great industrial city has been reduced to nothing but one huge […]
What can I say about Hinchley Wood? Safe, quaint, tame, beautiful suburban promised land to those tired of slumming it out in some inner city sh*thole and dreaming of a new life in the ‘country” (I cringe whenever someone associates where I live with the country). To the people actually living here under the age […]
Ashington lies just off the northeast coast of England and was once a place where grown men tunnelled in search of coal. Not anymore. Ashington is now a necrotic ulcer on the nether regions of the North East. It is a place where being ‘hard’ is admired and violence is a mark of a man’s […]

Ibiza is a lovely island. A paradise of pretty villages, rolling pine covered hills and some of the finest beaches in the world. San Antoni is unfortunately a particularly crusty scab on the face of this fine island. Upon approaching the town you will instantly feel a mixture of dread and disappointment. The grey dilapidated […]

Bromyard, known by the locals as “bumrod”, is a quaint town Almost exclusively populated by the silver surfers with its numerous rustic (holes in the roof, if it’s wet, don’t leave the house) and quaint (a code word for the queens’ dance floor occupying a 2 square meter space) pubs ensure this as a retirement […]
I saw a post stating that Burscough was the ****** capital of England. Well, my friend, I present to you Lathom. Not just the ****** capital of England, Christ no, but the ****** capital of the ******* world. About 50 people actually live there, and all of them are at least second cousins if not […]

Robbing shops and knife crime! This place literally has no English people and I […]

Pretty cathedral ✔ Attractive riverside walks ✔ An array of interesting independent shops ✔ Buuuuut . . . . Obese natives ✔ run down council estates ✔ rife unemployment ✔ Hereford is a city of contradictions. A fine historic cathedral, beautiful Georgian townhouses and an excellent new shopping centre, yet despite all this, it is […]
