    Belfast.

    Voted in the very latest top 10 destinations of the world.

    Trip Advisor saying Belfast is the best value UK city break and the Lonely Planet saying you had better get here before the rest of the world comes," he said.
    I rest my case.

            Belfast, and make no mistake, it's still a shithole. Everything worth seeing is packed into a few square miles and surrounded by sectarian ghettos.

                i had to stop at nuneaton and get a taxi back to civilisation.

                i was there for a maximum of 10 minutes.

                most tedious and infuriating 10 minutes of my life.

                for this, i blame you, tigger.

                GIVE ME RETRIBUTION!!!!!


                I went to Tamworth once , It was closed !!!!!

                          st helens,somewhere between the scousers (irish bluestaffy) and the lobby gobbler(mick) and next door to
                          the pie eater (mick)
                          it is without doubt the boil on the arsehole of this country,nothing but poundshops and ~~~~ all else,must have the most ignorant unhelpful shopworkers in the country,no nightlife,no nightclubs,all pubs boarded up,at least 10 years behind wigan, 20 behind warrington and a 100 behind liverpool

                            Melton Mowbray here.
                            Promoted as the "Rural Capital of Food", because they didn't know what else to put on the road sign. famous for Pork pies, Stilton cheese and the phrase 'painting the town red'.
                            from the outside it looks a nice market town, but it has its scummy druggie thieving toerag problems too. Not as much as the cities, but its there.
                            Used to be 80+ pubs, now there are 13 that I can think of.
                            Alan up the bum Duncan is our MP.
                            Not bad market on a tuesday. Recorded as Leicestershire's only market in the 1086 Domesday Survey, it is the third oldest market in England. Animals in the cattle market, and general tat in the town.
                            Anne of cleeves lived here, and ran a pub.. maybe.

                              Stockton-on-Tees, birth place of the railways & we gave you the friction match.

                              The area is a bit of a nightmare. You have some really nice safe areas, but there are also places you just don't want to go near....with next to no warning that you're heading for that 'no go' scum hole.

                              The town has seen a decline in recent times. Even McDonalds closed!! But it's still functioning & has a few good pubs.... & some real shitty dives. Not much in the way of night clubs, it's better in Middlesbrough.

                              But we do have a really good road system compared to other towns/cities... even if they still need repairing from the last two winters.

                              20 minutes in any direction will put you in lovely countryside or drowning in the north sea.

                              @True Grit, I dare you to walk down Church Street on a saturday night without a weapon.
