Oh yes, lovely countryside between the towns, some nice villages. I feel I should mention Stanton, but I don't think any of you will know it. Never heard of it! But feel free to put it down, we can make a point not to go then. I think James Scowcroft used to/still does live there

Coalville (leicestershire) Great Yarmouth Skegness Corby (new town - old village is quite nice) Blackpool Coalville as a town died when the pits closed down - went there last year and after 15mins came home. Yarmouth not been for years Skeg - went earlier this year as Geofox says its a day out and everytime i say i will never go back! Corby - Never been Blackpool - well what can i say..? for the list i will add - Scunthorpe - Spent months up there workin with a previous employer at steelworks and it was crap! Moira - even with Conkers its still a shit hole!! (Swad aint much better) There is nothing in Moira, but there are some nicer housing estates now and it isnt as bad as Albert Village!! ;D ;D Swadlincote is ok - better than Coalville where they all come from the same gene pool! Agree about Scunthorpe - and somebody mentioned Port Talbot earlier.....that place makes Middlesboro look like Monaco! ;D

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! Yea true and i know Skeggy is pretty bad but it's good at teh same time. I love gonig to Skeggy for a day i couldn't spend the whoel weekend in Skeggy. The whole weekend in Butlins or Ingoldmells yea Yeah its alright and I used to have some great days out there! Shame the sea is always brown though.

There isn't much more of a depressing scene than driving past the industrial works of Port Talbot on the M4 on a grey, rainy day!

Tis absolutely true geo - i nearly fell over laughing at the daft twat! ;D Coalville precinct is just awful - full of pensioners, chavs and doleites!! They all used to congregate in Star Burger but thats closed now i think! ;D My brother occasionally goes shopping in Coalville Morrisons - just to make himself feel better about life!

The beloved New St ! They keep on about revamping it then decide not to. Personally I think no-one has been found alive yet that will to see through such a mammoth task. It took me 40 minutes to find fresh air SG. I was being suffocated by Claire's accessories and £1 shops!!! Follow the floor round and leave through the door across the road from the Bull Ring then, instead of going up the stairs. But yeah, I try to avoid going into Brimingham in general, only for Christmas presents and to get the train elsewhere. Redditch is a dump too. Known among its residents/nearby people as The Ditch. Yet I'll still catch the train there to go to the pub as one by the station is better than what Alvechurch has to offer.
