A bit like Scandinavia. Seems to be quoted as a great place to live in many surveys but the suicide rates are higher than in the UK.Quote:

Bedlinog, new tredegar, bargoed to name but 3
Yeah weird how wurzelville can be in there when app it’s soooooo great? It’s not that bad but isn’t so good either. Traffic nightmare, houses cost a fortune in a decent area and where they don’t you wouldn’t want to live anyway.Quote:

Other than Bristol and Liverpool (that are both good) the rest are absolute shit holes with Blackpool being top of the shop. I’d replace the 2 good ones with Wolverhampton and Middlesbrough (which would be in my top 3)Quote:

The leisure centre was Ok as a refuge for a cuppa as was the art gallery. Nothing else there. Cheap housing though. Stourbridge lost (a team local to where I live) to a controversial goal. Spennymoor are doing OK this season and could be on for a second promotion.Quote:

can't be right if dudley or wolverhampton isn't mentioned !
Visited loads of those places with the the city, but one I have spent some time with the locals is Bristol.
And I can say hand on heart that they are the thickest bunch of C***s I have ever come across.
I only hate them less than the ****ing cockneys
C**ts
Bristol is too pretentious for it’s own good. Faddy and forced.
Moving from Bristol to Newport is a right plunge mind, do they realise what a complete dump the place is, just to save a few quid?Quote:

Don’t think so. Was a separate sub thread on Scandinavian suicide
Edit. Clicked post not quote. Should of quoted LOM
