Having gone to school in Kettering, I had the inevitable exchange trip there.
I remember very little of it other than it's a perfect match; nothing much in the town and even less in the surrounding rural villages. Although it adjoins Koblenz, which is quite a nice place; so marginally less depressing than Kettering itself.

The first day there, being caught in that torrential downpour, during a carnival, I would agree with you. After a few days though I actually started to really love it there.

Vaguely amused to see it has an 'Adolfstraße'!
Shame they banned Streetview or else I'd see if I remembered any of it, or where I stayed in Emmelshausen. My memories of it are considerably disjointed and skewed by age.
