Rubbish Towns
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

Leven and Methil, Fife
That's Leven as in 'I wish I was Leven' and Methil as in 'ated spirits'.
Myself and my marketing director spent half an hour driving round these two adjacent towns trying to find the location for our business appointment. We stopped and asked three people for directions - one 'fuck off', one incoherent grunt, one man with half his face missing (who couldn't speak as a result).
'Go and ask in that pub,' marketing genius suggests.
'It's called the Steppenwolf', I reply, 'and I'm wearing a suit. Not a chance.'
I think we eventually found our destination just by driving around all the ghastly industrial estates.
