I hear ya, Zam.

The big girl has kinfolk in Middlesborough and every couple years we go up there for a visit.

We stay in Redcar :(

The coldest seaside resort on earth :rolleyes:

Unfortunately “not going back” is not an option ol’ Pet has :x





As a resident of the Boro , Redcar is 100% buggered , looked better turned into Dunkirk for the film "Atonement", :D


That is one hell of a scene - though maybe a bit tame by modern British seaside standards...



:lol: :lol: :lol:


Did you see that fillum, Pet?

I enjoyed it.



I did indeed, Reg.

Good filum :D

All of those, like Abergele and Talacre, collectively referred to as "Tin town" on Merseyside.

I understand the concept of hiding in a caravan or a pub, but how do you hide in a Jewish person?

I went on a narrow boat a few years ago .... dear god.

Pottering along is ok, but the tedious cunts who own a boat who either a) lecture you about how to steer the floating caravan or b) moaning about people who rent them - did my head in.

Let's hire a gun boat and mow all the fuckers down. Apocalypse Now style. Come visit me, we can go on the Norfolk Broads.

I'll share my top tip how to shut the fuckers up.

When they are full flow telling you about the joys of like on the open cut point out that you aren't sure if you could live full time somewhere you have the essentially shit in a bucket and empty it out every once and a while.

Once you have them defending pumping their own faeces out it seems a lot less romantic.

Don't think I've had a boring holiday.

Been to places which aren't too exciting or the weather wasn't very good ; but always found something to do. Give me a week in Newtownards, Stranraer, Newport or Walsall, I'm sure I'd love all four places.

Went to Gran Canaria last minute(pal broke up with his g/f, and we managed to change it from a double to two single beds thankfully)a few years back and whilst it was fine, even at 20, it was a bit boring as we didn't really do anything apart from watch football, get liquored up, then do it all again the next day and didn't see much of the island.

I've been to Walsall, it was one of the most depressing places I've ever been. No wonder all those Muslim men abuse children up that neck of the woods, there's fuck all else to do.
