The worst places to live in the East Midlands
Selston: a wonderful place to live if you like to make up and spread gossip, so long as the gossip wasn`t about you or your family. But, family is exactly what the people of Selston are. It is an ex mining village just off junc.26 of the m1. The most noteworthy thing about it being […]

Horncastle is a quaint, traditional, little market town set within the Lincolnshire Wolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Sounds lovely, doesn’t it? Unfortunately after living here for seven years, you soon discover that the Wolds are just a bunch of hills, “quaint” means “dull” and “traditional” means “Doesn’t like black people”. The average age […]

Where to begin. Matlock may well be in the doomsday book and it seems that word, doom, features in many of the people’s lives here. With a vast selection of 13+ charity shops that would charge the same amount for the rags they sell as Armani would for a full suit, many residents seem satisfied […]

When I was little and growing up here, I used to hate Kirkby with a passion. Nowadays, there’s not even enough left to hate. It’s a dirty, dingy skeleton. If some people didn’t have to live here, nobody would come anywhere near the place. If you like charity shops and hairdressers you’ll be amply served […]

Pinxton is one of those places where time seems to have stood still; the place reminds you of the 1970’s. It’s still got an old-school Laundromat and I swear to god that Woodfield Road was used in the council flat scene for the film ‘’Rita, Sue & Bob Too’’ Pinxton boasts the finest aquatics & […]

I lived in Nottingham all my life before recently moving to London. I can safely say that Areas in Nottingham are literally a no go – on the same level as Afghanistan. Bilborough, Broxtowe, Basford and St Anns are just massive council estates filled with hooded ***** who openly carry weapons and drugs on them. […]

I feel that my grandfathers, grandmothers, brothers and sisters home town of Grimsby is a bog basic, mundane, depressing, and menial level place to live long term. Since 1990 a dire economic situation engulfed the town and will last I guess to around the year 2050, transforming it into a constant economically decomposing place to […]
I was going about my weekly shopping over at Spondon Asda the other day when I witnessed something absolutely disgusting and horrific. What did I see? I saw a middle-aged Sikh fella wearing a Turban, down at the ‘electronics’ aisle. Now if you’re not a racist bag of sh*t, you may be wondering what I […]
Winning the Sun newspaper’s prestigious award for “Fattest town in Britain” isn’t all Worksop is famous for. Think men in tights, ***** in kappa and women of all shapes and sizes in leggings and you’re just about there. However, these days Robin and his Merry men don’t rob from the rich to give to the […]
Welcome to ‘sunny’ Stamford, a quiet market town recently named as the best place to live in the UK by the Sunday Times. A picturesque existence steeped in history awaits the weary traveler, as does the town’s fine selection of traditional pubs and enticing restaurants. It seems that nowhere in the country could a more […]

Seriously I left Devon to be here? We decided to move as my husband’s family are from the area. However, my initial impressions of this place being a tranquil, unspoilt gem of the Peak District, is a but like implying that it’s ok to **** on someone’s door – which probably goes on here. Firstly, […]
