Rubbish TownsI 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

Now there's a coincidenceI'm about to write an article about a guy who grew up in what would fit the identikit crap town in this week's QOTW - shops all closing down as a result of the big supermarket opening, no jobs, kids hanging around with nothing to do.
Except, instead of moaning about it, he's getting on his bike and doing something about it *, cycling around the world to raise awareness of a variety of issues, and is currently well on track to break the world record .
Here's his website - If you click on 'manifesto', he even mentions "shit hole towns" in the third paragraph. Best of luck to him - wonder if he's a B3tan?
* Sorry, that all came over a bit Norman Tebbit, didn't it?

Damn.....he's in Texas right now. Wonder if he's stopping anywhere here?
