Blackpool: The less than salubrious Seaside

Living in Blackpool, Lancashire

Blackpool, although you may think it’s a jolly seaside resort with candy floss and donkeys, it is where transients come to draw benefits in a holiday resort instead of an inner city. Go back a few streets from the prom, and you will see the deprivation, the ghettos and the rundown pubs that make up […]

Oxford: the ugly truth revealed!

Living in Oxford

Ah, Oxford. Land of dreaming spires and colleges abound. Posh was born here. Intellectual, civilised, affluent. What they don’t tell you is the enormous disparity between areas. The gap between the rich and the poor is so huge the teeny tiny middle class just fall right in it. Actually, they are continuously forced out of […]

Whitland: escape is futile!

Living in Whitland, Carmarthenshire, Wales

Ah the song of humming birds, the rushing sound of water as it meanders the tributaries and enchanting church bells echoing through the valley. These are all the glorious characteristics you’d normally associate with the traditional Welsh villages in the heart of Carmarthenshire and indeed one would suggest, at a first glance, that Whitland has […]

Margate – A true horror

This is a true story. In the summer of 2017 me and a mate came up with the seemingly brilliant idea of going to Margate for the night. We both had fond memories of visiting margate from our childhood. The funfairs, the beach, the bumper cars, it seemed to make sense. However as we are […]

Birkenhead: full of losers and utterly ruthless backstabbers

Living in Birkenhead, Wirral

I have mixed feelings on both this topic, the places named and the responses given to the top 10 worst places to live. To be honest, I actually moved away from the Liverpool area, incidentally, Birkenhead is where I’m from. They call us plastic scousers up there because we have the accent but we don’t […]

Lowestoft: the land of gormless men & severely pale and overweight single mothers

Living in Lowestoft, Suffolk

So, unbeknownst to me, the UK has a group of possible contenders for the scenario witnessed in Battle Royale. This group of people are known as Lowestoftians. I’m pretty sure if we stuck them all on the Isle of White and told them to off each other, they would walk straight into the sea and […]

Antrim – the entire place is a sh*t heap

Living in Antrim, Northern Ireland

Antrim is the place that defies normal town planning, most places have “good areas” and “bad areas”; Antrim, on the other hand, makes no distinction between good and bad – the entire place is a sh*t heap. A neglected and run down collage of council estates, populated with the idiots that moved from Belfast and […]

Winson Green, Birmingham: it was a BIG mistake moving there, it’s a major hole!

Living in Winson Green, Birmingham

Me and my girlfriend moved to Birmingham about 6 months ago after I finished my Degree in Stoke University. I have to admit, little research was done on my part regarding nice places to live and we just went for somewhere near town that was relatively cheap. BIG MISTAKE! The day we moved in we […]

Boston, Lincs, every bad thing done to excess

Living in Boston, Lincolnshire

well, I found myself unfortunate to live in Boston for eight, nearly nine years. I’ve lived in a lot of places; some good some bad. In Scotland, Wales and England I’ve lived and worked in some towns, some mentioned on this site so I can say honestly that Boston is without doubt ‘as rough as […]
