Tunisia
dusty fly blown dump with locals who hate you with a passion. I am relatively well travelled and Tunisia had no redeeming features.

In Britain I would say Stoke-on-Trent. Street after street of boarded up houses and a breed of super-chav seems to have evolved (devolved?) there.

Cheap and readily available drugs.

Edit - this applies to Stoke as well as Tunisia.

i used to let flats there. you could have a 3 bed flat for £35 a week and we still couldn't shift them.

we had a freephone stoke number, as the locals were too pikey to dial 0161, and we all used to dive onto something else every time it rang. shudder.

Estate agents are the lowest of the low.
I remember having an argument with Knight Frank after they refused to give me the time of day in one of their branches.

I did phone them a few days later and spoke to some pompus twat of a manager who was wearing mustard coloured cords when I was first in there to say that the house I wanted to sell had been placed with another agent who had agreed to pay 75% of the Country Life advertising and they'd produce a glossy leaflet to send to people they knew were looking for a place similar to the one I was selling.

The fact he just worked in a shop was lost on him.

They'd have copped for a massive commission as well, but seemingly scruffy blokes with a couple of days stubble and a pair of jeans aren't in a position to sell houses through their agency. Even houses that had stables, land and outbuildings.
