I once spent a week in Coventry. <shudder> Hopefully not in Tile Hill. I had a delightful room at the Coventry and Warwick hospital.....some <duck>er stole my pizza out of the oven there. A bloke tried to kill me on my one visit to the pub and the offlicence had a dodge the needles game outside and a grille complete with gorilla behind it saying "What the <duck> do you want you Jock caaarnt?" The phone directly outside my room would ring at all hours with amorous feckers chasing the cute student nurses I was sharing with. The standard 3am "Hello" "Can I speak to busty Belinda in room 12?" "Is it important?" "No..." "Well <duck> off then!" The nurses weren't even that cute to be honest....a shithole.

I believe that ProfessorFart once spent 6 months undercover in a grindhouse in Soi LadyBoySpunk, Chiang Mai. For the whole operation, so as not to break cover, he wore a Chang wifebeater, ate MaMa Noodnes washed down with Archa and his only contact with the outside world was through the free wifi that he got by sitting outside of Starbucks.
If you ask him nicely he will tell you all about how great his fellow Digital Pikeys and room mates were.

I had the pleasure courtesy of an ongoing investigation to spend a month or so in Goole in what may best be charitably described as economy price accommodation (doss house, spike etc) due to some recent arrivals into the U K in whom we had an interest in, they being ensconced in the place.
Even the bed bugs and the fleas had fled the place due to the delicate effluvia drifting from 3 toilets used by fifty + blokes to whom soap and water and clean clothes had yet to be introduced to them.
To increase the delights that tickled one olfactory senses the local industrial areas contributed to the atmosphere thus reinforcing the delights of our brief stay including four good collars too,so the experience in the end was worthwhile in that area thankfully.
Never been back to the place thank goodness
The name Goole it seems derives from the word goule, meaning "stream" or "channel", or possibly "outlet drain.
That line above figures to me the place stunk like an open sewer basically, even the slappers were wearing ''Chanel Canal No.9.

Soi 1 Loi Kroh, across the street from the Number 1 Bar and down about 50 mtrs, there is a little shop run by a little Englishman. Out the front is one of those round concrete table and chairs and about four chavs sit there all day every day drinking big bottles of Chang, wifebeaters and all. The guy who owns the shop must make a killing out of them. I think they are all working undercover.

Kingston Ontario - Canada for 8 months working
The shit hole of Ontario, full of prisons and drug addicts and in the middle of nowhere.
The one and only Thai restaurant was run by a nice Lebanese couple 5555

Barrow-in-Furness, a town populated by inbred morons who considered Ulverston a foreign country, and who had pictures on the mantlepiece of Great Uncle Albert who, being intrepid to heroic proportions, once visited London.

The Welcome Hotel in Barkarby, Järfälla, Sweden (not far from Stockholm). The only place where the bed was too small (as in too short) and the room claustrophobia inducing. Booked by the company as near to offices and so. Luckily never more than a few days. www.welcomehotel.se/en/default.htmlPs looking at the website they may have changed abit. I only remember 1.5m by 4m rooms

My parents lived in Barrow for a while between the end of the war and when they migrated to Australia. Dad worked in the shipyards. They said it was a terrible place but at the time they had no other choice. Said they were glad to get out of there. Still have some old photos of the place, looks bleak and miserable.

I assume though that the beers at Number 1 Bar are probably a little on the pricey side for those guys. Was trying to think the worst place I lived, and really it wasn't so much the area bu the run down dumps I was living in in my first year at University in Plymouth. The forst place I lived in was in this bedsit / guesthouse opposite Plymouth College, just off Mutley Plain - the place was a <duck>ing dump, and the land lady was a mad, p**sed up Algerian - managed to endure 3 months there, before moving to another house shared with some mates on Lipson Road. Was great fun, but the place was damp, dirty and unfortunately we had on other resident in the house called "The Slob", who I think had been glued to the couch for the four years he had been undertaking his 2nd year at University. Thankfully, my mates parents bought a house for us all to live in in the second year.
