Preston looked a shit tip on my 2 visits their. Merthyr Tydvil is a hole, ive never come across a town with so little in it apart from a Travel Lodge and a B&Q. Oh and Wakefield Wakefield is like a consumerist's Mecca, when compared with Pontefract! ;D

Ive never had the pleasure of Pontefract i must admit. After going to the armouries for a conference last week i did find that Leeds had turned into 1 big flat however.

Then your horizons are very limited Jen. Derby train station is much worse! ;D Leicester Train Station is awful too Leicester station is a listed building dating back to the nineteenth century! To the list, I would add: Coventry Stevenage Thetford Telford Southend Luton Port Talbot

And whats worse dudette, Thetford is full of inbred people who've migrated from London! Haha agree about Coalville Gres. My whole family originate from there lol. I work in Corby and it suffered hugely from the closure of the steelworks and years of neglect afterwards. Its getting back on track now, with the new shopping centre, school, international swimming pool and railway station being built though. With so much incoming investment, the town at least has a much brighter future than its past. Unfortunately for us East Midlanders, Skeggy and Yarmouth are about it for a day at the seaside!

Its difficult to tell what some of them are saying sometimes. And they all support Rangers or Celtic! Largest Rangers supporters club in England I think.

Interesting stuff!

The A11 from Cambridgeshire to Naaarch is quite scenic around there!

I feel I should mention Stanton, but I don't think any of you will know it.
