Cotford St Luke – Fantastic if you like GUNFIRE!

Living in Cotford St Luke, Somerset

Cotford St Luke is a nondescript ‘new town’ (well, 20 ish years old) 6 or so miles to the north west of Taunton. It has a Co-Op shop and a quite well reviewed diner/bar called The Chapel. The problem with this place is gunfire or gunshot, call it what you will. SIX days a week […]

Wiveliscombe: sh*te rolled down hill and collected in one glorious cesspit

Living in Wiveliscombe, Somerset

Wiveliscombe in Somerset: Well where do you start? Often described in the glossy tourist brochures (I jest – there are no glossy tourist brochures!) as ‘The Gateway to Exmoor, nestling in an amphitheatre of glorious surrounding hills’.

Living in Bridgwater, Somerset

Bridgwater is best described as a ‘meeting place’ in that like an open cess-pit, the thickest ***** tend to accumulate here. These are the people that cut themselves shaving and place the plaster on the mirror. Cro-magnon man would have no trouble fitting-in here though his wife would need to get a ‘wide load’ tattoo […]

Bridgwater, take your time driving through (with the doors locked)

Living in Bridgwater, Somerset

I am most surprised given the prominence of the notoriety that no-one has yet nominated glorious Bridgy. Bridgwater must be seen in the flesh to be believed. Where else in the UK would even the locals bother to alter the oddly-pentagon-shaped town name sign with a line through BW and replace it with Bosnia / […]
