Reading kicks Hull's arse. Not that that's hard.

As soon as I saw the thread title I was going to come in here and say it was Rich.

He's moving to Grimsby now, though. I wonder where that comes in the ranking?

It is, Nottingham's a whole different kettle of fish though.

Luckily two roads up lives a gang - my road's therefore their turf and we don't get burgled

1) I thought you got a job Rich
2) Good going Proovo!
3) It's not heroin, it's just Prozac
4) Driving 100+ mph tut tut
5) Smashing glasses upon losing arm wrestling contests
6) Those choc chip cookies eh...

I live in Reading, and its much nicer than most of the places ive lived.

Ive lived in
Chester -> ok
Portsmouth -> run down, but ok
Nottingham -> some area's are rough
Hounslow -> very dirty, and now full of beggers
Newcastle -> Ok, but the people are so damn regional
Reading ... which up to now, is ok.

Can't say ive ever found anywhere which ive thought this is the place for me .. I guess everywhere has its down sides.

Front page of the Worthing Herald.

Worthing voted worst place to grow up in Britain.

15 Undertakers and 50 old peoples homes. apparently make worthing the most likely place to induce boredom.

And what's that supposed to mean exactly?

You wouldn't catch me visiting Rangoon and then complaining about all the Burmese living there.
That would just be ridiculous. Have you got any tips to save the Geordies from their regional nightmare?

At a guess, it means being critical of outsiders.
