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

Manchester (the city that thinks it's a town)
Got sent to this throbbing muscle of a city earlier this year. Thursday night - 8.15 - went to the Corner House, reputedly a lively arts venue for the hep cats o' the North. Bar closed, last films already half-shown, dead. Crossed a desolate city centre on foot, back to hotel. 2.30 a.m. I was awoken by a gang fight on the street outside. Highly entertaining. Like a live version of most modern british cinema, only in Manchester the police don't turn up. I don't blame them really. Lots of yelling, screaming, posturing for quite a long time. Or maybe it was a dream?

Don't blame Manchester because you went to the wrong venue...
next time, ask a local.

Apart from the city thing
(I live in a more rural area)
Manc isn't that bad, IMO. It's got the awesomeness that is Sankeys, and not one but TWO Apple stores.
