Burford is a hell hole. Lucky to get out alive!
Really... It was always a dead posh when I was at school there.... suppose it was a Murdoch moving in dragging it down! |

Yeah when I used to get the dribble bus northwards, that always seemed to be really nice. |

2 malls,decent selection of shops and a notable lack of chavs, although the Weatherspoons had its usual share of pissheads.
Just popped in to use the toilet ? |

Coventry.
 Any place that could allow Tangerine Dream to play in its new cathedral, after the medieval masterpiece had been flattened by the Luftwafffe is OK by me.

It's still a shithole, the area around the cathedral is quite nice but the rest is just fucking horrible |

Aberdeen has to take it's place somewhere near the top, looks nice in the photo's but when you get there it really isn't. The granite makes it a very dark and depressing place until you get to the beach which is ok until you look out to see hundreds of oil industry ships. The traffic is bloody awful too. Luton beats Aberdeen by miles though (about 500!) absolute shithole , only plus point the cheap Easyjet flights down there. Sadly I have to agree that Swindon would be 'in the mix' too  Aberdeen wins Scotland's most Dismal City award - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-31095837 |
