I once went to Basildon. It was closed, I got chased by a bunch of knuckle-dragged yobs until I was lost in a maze of concrete alleyways and got food poisoning off pie. Tell us about the awful places you've visited or have your home.
Thanks to SpankyHanky for the suggestion

It's not a great place to be fair. Down the road about an hour or so is one of the wine growing regions around the Mosel river - even that has rather bleak bits. Germany seems to have peaked(!) in the 1980s and not moved on - the food is mostly poor, the wine sweet, beer fizzy and away from Bavaria most of the scenery is no better than a good deal of the UK.
That's why I don't have to spend my summers there anymore.

France is nicer, so is Italy.
Stay away from Austria - you might fall into a cellar.

And Austrians have all the efficiency of Germans without any of the shouting.
