  • Dundee. Once described thus;

    "Dundee looks like it was built by Stalin".

    I know near to 0 when it comes to crap towns 'round Britain even because I know nothing above Bristol... unfortunatelly, or not.
    I have a mate, living in Berlin now, he did uni in Edinburgh, he could swear for his life that this little town next to Dundee,
    had to be the worst place in this fucken island. He had traveled a lot with a theater company, all over the UK....
    ?******? is my biggest reference of shit hole.

    Any ideas what it could be?

  • +1 to margate only tourists who dont know about broadstairs go there now. locals avoid it..

    oh and chatham. home of the chav. smells of hotdogs...everywhere...

  • Reported for kiddy fiddling.

    I genuinely don't get that. What did I miss?

  • ...and the North?

    No one under 50 will get that; I assume you are referring to the band of that name.

    Mate it could be any number of shithole Scottish towns. Kirkcaldy, Stirling, Dunfermline, Cumbernauld (ooooh fucking Cumbernauld....shivers)......too many to choose from....

  • Cumbernauld?
    where Claire Grogan lives?
    fucking moving there now!

  • Why do you want to live where clair grogan lives Jason?

    (You do mean the irish rounders champion?)

  • Rhyl.

    Anything that was once fun is decaying. Even the sea is black.

    Not any more, she lives in Islington now, seen her a few times. She would STILL get it too

    she does seem to go for crap places

    I'm from Redditch. Just playin', boss.

  • I'm from Redditch.

    Neg repped

  • stranraer is pretty shite.
    what i know of belfast is pretty shite too but i'm sure a lot of it is quite nice.

    coventry, stoke, northampton etc are just normal towns that happen to have been hit quite hard by the decline of industry...

  • Cleethorpes

    Cleethorpes is rubbish for a seaside holiday but its brilliant in the winter .

  • Not any more, she lives in Islington now, seen her a few times. She would STILL get it too

    She must be beside herself with eager anticipation eh?

  • Neg repped

    Self neg. I like it!

  • Rusty #107 - that before and after photo made me want to weep.

    Place I expected to be crap and wasn't really - Billericay, nice fish and chip shop.

    Guildford is sad not because it's all that crap as such but because of its missed opportunities - the soulless cathedral that should be surrounded by little winding streets but instead sits by itself on a windblown hill (went to Lincoln recently - that's how to do a cathedral on a hill!), what should be a great public square by the old town bridge that's now a car park, the wanky one-way system in the town centre - there's just no imagination in general: the suburban mindset.

    Bognor, wouldn't live there, but when you just sit on the beach on the summer and it's full of kids innocently enjoying the sand and sea - that's quite a precious thing IMHO and the town's saving grace.

    I hate Oxford Street and that whole massively overcrowded pavement area - it makes me feel that we are just a collection of writhing maggots.

  • the suburban mindset.

    That's what I hate about Guilford and load of mid sized town like that, it's the entire town of suburbia. The most important part of it always seems to be the carparks.

  • The common denominator with 95% of these 'Crap Towns' is that if you 'don't fit in' and/or wear slightly different clothes to the average local bone'ead you're likely to get a kickin on a Saturday night!
