The Midlands

[Bjornebye]

Dear god I forgot how fucking depressing this place is. On the train on my way to Coventry and just pulling in to Wolverhampton station. Grim as fuck. You cant have tell the difference in how people ook the closer you get to the Midlands as well. Place needs nuking. Actually it looks like it was a while ago.

Stig's been sent to Coventry

Oh look at lord of the Manor going round sneering at other towns because they don't meet sir's high standards. 

 

I for one am OUTRAGED. 

 

This country.

To be fair Coventry and Wolverhampton are shitholes. Plenty of great places in the Midlands though, next time get a train that takes you to them instead of Wolverhampton.

Birmingham town centre is fucking grim too. The train station is sound though, just don’t venture outside.

In the early to mid 90’s my parents lived and worked in Coventry, I got good work down there so spent most of my time there for a few years. Where they lived was nice Whitley Village, other areas like any other City were shitholes. Barely a boozer in the city centre, people with no sense of humour. Coincided with the time Coventry always beat us too.

Client I've just met was a nice enough fella but arguably the plainest, most boring person you could wish to meet. Faces like smacked arses all over the place.

I stayed very local when I was there, my mum and dad worked in a Halfway House for ex prisoners, but the area was nice. The people were strange.

The train station has improved to be fair! Used to love the pub The Bridge inside it years ago. Its gone now.

Coventry is the most depressing place in the universe. I used to have to spend time there in my old job, total fucking mood hoover of a place.

The walk then from the council building to the station was as low as I've felt when walking from a council building to a train station which considering one of our clients in Tower Hamlets that says it all. Its like the set from This is England 84. In-fact wasnt it set somewhere around there anyway? I meant to get there by train this morning not by fucking Tardis

Drank in a pub in Cov called the Mysterious Monk, full of wannabe wankers.

A lovely pub called the Royal Oak was opposite my parents flat.

Ate there three nights a week, nice place inhabited on the whole by people with the designated amount of digits.

There were woods behind my parents flat, in the woods was another Hostel, Drug Recovery. Two lads I grew up with were there.

You haven't even got to the East Midlands yet! A total barm free zone.

[Curly]

Preston is the most miserable place I’ve ever visited. Mardy, miserable cunts, with a shit city centre and terrible accent.

[mattyq]

Slough for me

The fucking worst shithole in the world... a lot of the 2 bit shitty little towns just outside of London are dire

Then again places like Mansfield and Rotherham aren't great, either

[Bjornebye]

Ancoats in Manchester is disgusting

Bolton is the crappiest place I've been too and an absolutely abominable accent.

[Fugitive]

Milton Keynes is the sort of place that makes you sad just by reading the name.

East Midlands worse than the West Midlands for me. Not as bleak but no Black Country charm. Total little England, Tory heartland prim and proper shite. Bland as fuck, no real accent or culture, and when you get through the cunting place you end up in Yorkshire.
