Good Points.

Great market,with a stall of unusual music
Pubs everywhere
Lots of plants, tree's and fields, and other kinds of greenery.
Skateboarding park

Bad Points.

Pubs everywhere
No cinema
Lazerdrome has long gone
Speedbumps everywhere
High crime and underage pregnancy rate for small town
No real good shops, unless you want cards and crap
Train station shut down
Lack of decent jobs, but loads of factories
and....not one bloody music shop! (unless you count WH Smiths. )

I could ramble on about the bad points all day, does that make me old? :helpsmile:

Tell us about the good points about your town, or your part of a city if that is appropriate. Five good points, five bad points. I am not asking you to run your town down, that is what the council is there for. Try and make the bad points humorous. I’ll start with the town I stay in at the moment, you figure out where it is:


Good Points

1. Home of Johnny Walker (no not the DJ)
2. The poet Robert Burns first published here.
3. It is centrally located, in a tourist area, making almost anything easily accessible.
4. The oldest railway viaduct in the world is located on the outskirts of the town.
5. The town is socially minded. Admittance to most amenities is free, including a large country park and castle.

I was going to add that they have a rubbish football team in the good points. But only Zero would appreciate that one.

Bad Points

1. The Mujahidin were using a local housing scheme for training purposes. They left because it was too rough for them.
2. There are no Ladies toilets. They were closed due to lack of usage. The council, in their infinite wisdom, put signs on the doors saying ‘No Dogs allowed’.
3. We tried to ‘Twin’ with Kabul. But Kabul turned us down.
4. There are that many people with walking sticks (An extra £34 on DHSS) in the town. On shopping day the centre of town looks like a sawmill.
5. If you took all the Charity, Pound, and Card shops out of the town centre, there would be nothing left.

I forgot to add, I live there, in the bad points.

booby booby!!

my town sux balls so i wont say much about it cuz i wana leave this place
