West Midlands - iLiveHere: Best & Worst UK Towns Reviewed

Walsall

I have had the pleasure of living in the **** haven of Walsall for over 20 years now and even ran a town centre pub for 3 years recently and i can honestly say that having traveled from the tip to toe of the UK with my job, Walsall must rank amoungst the top ten […]

Coventry – the armpit of the midlands

Hello. I will try to make this interesting. I don’t know whether any of you fine people have heard of Coventry and if not, you ain’t missing much. Maybe I am naive, but surely Coventry is the Townie Capital of Britain! Foetus-***** congregating by bus shelters, delapidated telephone boxes, chippies etc. I am unfortunate enough […]

Kingstanding, BIRMINGHAM

This burned out part of North Birmingham is best summed up by its McDonalds. Attempt to use the drive through and you’ll be confronted by fireproof makeup and the local ***** (Kevs) sniffing round your car asking for money. Failure to hand it over results in standard Kev abuse (cmon son; you may think you’re […]

Walsall

I ‘work’ for Walsall Council, which brings me into contact with local ***** on a daily basis. A while back I was in the town Museum where I wittnessed a fine example of **** stupidity. A local ******** and his Lizzy Duke wearing girlfriend had taken an object into the Museum for the staff to […]

Birmingham

A city blighted by the ****** invasion of T K Maxx-kitted ******* that are spawning the next generation of clown pendant-wearing petty thieves before our eyes. Usually on a park bench, or one of the few grass verges not full of Bull Terrier ****. Outside McDonalds is the obvious favourite spot, blocking access to the […]

Sutton Coldfield

Ah Sutton Coldfield. As a new user, I’m surprised that there are no existing entries for Sutton Coldfield, given the high concentration of ***** in and around the Gracechurch shopping centre and, later at night, the gippo pubs like the Litten Tree and Bottle o Sack. Now, don’t get me wrong, Sutton Coldfield has a […]

Coventry

Let me take you on my journey home from work. This will give you a ride through the lovely Coventry or a it is now called Chaventry. I start by getting the 19w bus the journey begins in Canley. At the top of Charter Avenue the bus gets loaded with female ***** and their prams […]

Dudley

Dudley is in a part of the Midlands known as the Black Country, so named because of its heavy industry. The landscape was once littered with horrific factories spewing out filthy black smoke into the atmosphere, leaving it permanently enveloped in black gloom. Hence the name, The Black Country. That will give you some idea […]

Dudley

Even as a new user, I’m surprised to see the lack of reference to Dudley in your lovely site. Ahh, my home town. The place that God forgot. Trust me, readers, if ***** were aeroplanes, Dudley is a ******* international airport. The interests of the Dudley **** include many delightful and generally illegal things. When […]

Coventry (Sh)ity Centre – like , you’re never far away from a

I cannot offer you a reliable explanation of the phrase ‘sent to Coventry’. But what I can offer is a reliable explanation of the desolate hell-hole of a city centre that awaits any poor unfortunate who may be sent there. The first thing you’ll notice on exiting the train station is that…there aren’t that many […]

Coventry – Upper Stoke

Upper Stoke, an inappropriately named area of Coventry. Much of ‘Cov’ classes as prime **** territory but I’ll have to mention a specific area, that of the Meadway, Hillside, Valley Road estate in the laughably named area of Upper stoke. This has always been a nasty part of town, and after 8 years away (in […]
