# Vote for the new Question of the Week
Ahoy shipmates!

Help us choose the next QOTW from one of the following suggestions:

Gateways to Hell - Where's the worse windswept hellhole you've ever visited, asks Freddie Woo, who is trapped in Romford.

Job interview disasters - 'Christ, what a craphole', I said as the boss showed me the shop floor. I think that's the moment I blew it.

Rough boozers - Tell us about the kind of place where the pool table is a source of weaponry. But they do a great pint

Acts of God - Has divine intervention (or, if you're not of that bent - sheer bloody chance) helped your life for good? Or were things completely messed up by a bolt from the blue?

My favourite album - MUSIC. Tell us yours, and why.







Vote closes over lunchtime.

# Birmingham Digbeth Coach Station.
End Gateways to Hell compo.

Think it's been redeveloped now but what a benighted sh*thole that place was.

# Birmingham, certainly.
Digbeth, and the FUCKING Custard Factory, and all those hideous irish boozers. Come friendly bombs, is the only correct response.

# I always found Digbeth to be utterly depressing.
Apparently a bloke got squashed between two buses in the station too which just adds to the "Gateway to Hell" ambience.

# Abstains
In other news anyone bored might like Cave of Forgotten Dreams starting on Film4 +1 in 5 minutes (oldest known pictorial art in the world and rather ace)
