pop off to http://www.knowhere.co.uk and type in the name of your town or home town..

for some reason the first page you get has skateboarding places on it (?) but click on the links on the right for some more delights..

This is what it has to say about Leigh, close to where i used to live..

under clubs -

And secondly there is the legendary Ruebens (aka Dustbins), the beer is disgusting and expensive and the women are disgusting and cheap.

There are 2 clubs in leigh both are dog ruff they are full of people that think as slow as they talk. Ruebens is the beter of the 2 but your feet stick to the floor and its full of scum.

lol - reubens rocked...

under hook up spots -

Leigh is an absolute hole. Do not under any circumstances attempt to "hook-up" with anyone there. Unless of course you'd like to have a five hour conversation in slow motion with a "Leyther" in a second hand Campri ski jacket about whether it's pronounced "hook" or "hooooooooouk".

superb - spot on that is..

under food -

Pies, pies and more pies. And kebab shops. And pizza shops with a one and a half hour delivery time. And a Macdonalds, for when locals are celebrating their wedding anniversaries.

Inside information
Hook-up Spot (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs -- a bench, a corner: you name it.)

The hook up spot outside the spar where the local asians serve anyone from the age 8 onwards . If u go on buile hill park on a friday you will see the local policeman crying like a baby in the back of his transit as the local thugs shower it with bricks, bottles, and ,petrol bombs
Salford Precinct- or any street corner


Skateboard Spots
Buille Hill Park watch the parkies tho
The Precinct car park . Inbetween the high rises


off 2 builey now with me sk8board in hand - yeah right like ud still have yer sk8board by the end of the day
:hole:
 
This is what they say about Llanelli !!

One of the best rugby teams in europe.

True true !!

Plenty of pubs and curry houses. More curry houses than Birmingham, probably...

Hee Hee !!

An ever-expanding local music scene (Turk-Rock) that will concur the world.

That is soooo funny, thats what Llanelli people are called - Turks !! And theres more rockers than anything else !!


In danger of becoming a mini-Swansea.

That would never happen, thered be a war !!!

The council, the amount of money wasted on THE MILLENIUM COASTAL PARK!!

It really does take the piss !! Its right across the road from my house too !! Its basically some ducks, swans, an attempted water sports thing, but it has a sign u saying "Do not let your dog go in the water as it is poisonous" !!!!!


Better than average chance of being headbutted by a complete stranger when walking down Station Road.

Hee hee, apparantly they say that if you can go out in Llanelli you can go out anywhere !!


Cracking egg and chips in the Savoy.

Best chippy ever !!

You can't visit Llanelli without having a battered rissole from the Savoy, a culinary masterpiece

Mmmmm rissoles, top fodder !!

Hook Up Spots !!
Station road (basically where all the pubs are....more pubs than houses in Llanelli !!)

I'd like to say the Masons Arms but I suppose it will have to be the sunken gardens although it's mainly tramps and skateboarders who hang around there.


Too true !! This made me laugh this site !!

Sweet xx

WIDNES....get ready for it

Hook-up Spot (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs -- a bench, a corner: you name it.)

Victoria park was a spot of hazy acid filled summers for me, and still pretty popular with the cider kids. If you prefer local shops as your hang out spot then Peelhouse lane has three very popular places to cavort and stuff.
Victoria Park, Victoria Square fountain, Town Centre.
Absolutely none widnes is by no doubt the shittest town on the face of the world ever! Never bother cummin here its shit for skatin with only a couple of empty car parks for me probably the only skater in this god-forsaken place its a hellhole and it stinks of shit! I used to live in gloucester and its ace there but this place is past a joke its just rubbish!

pmsl...couldn't have put it better myself:D :D :D :D

Inside information
Hook-up Spot (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs -- a bench, a corner: you name it.)

Try the bearpit next to the bus station above the river if you are brave enough to challenge the pigeons in their own territory (the stink of the river won't keep them away!)
Grand Central
Grand Central. Absolutely hundreds of teenagers there looking for fights, stealing money off people and trying to get into luckies (erm, no).
Skateboard Spots

the A6...go on, try it whydoncha!
Canal Street. Not very good and expensive but never the less a skateboard spot.
Bones skatepark on canal street, £4 per 3 hour session for BMXers,skatboarders and, erm binliners

Fish pan-Jimmy Savilles ther fav customer

Triccaloes has good tables for dancing on
Florio's really good at happy hour
Burger king is to good to miss

BARS

Workington
Workington - Cumbria

Hook up Spot

- I remember Stainburn steps,I Still knock about there with a bottle of cider even though its surrounded by a bunch of old bastards who phone the cops if you kick a football.

- moorclose sports centre with ron and hoss whach out though their off their heads you can also see don and natli wid their crew

Food

Harrington Rd Chinese sells dodgy meals such as cockroach chow mein and silverfish foo yung and the old bag who serves is about as pleasant as a wet weekend in silloth. The Curwen sells the best all day breakfast in the world, try it! Moorclose chippy is the best for cumberland sausage and chips and Lam Ross is a nice guy who used to feed all us whippersnappers when we were young thugs and terrorised the neighbourhood

Pubs

Moorclose pub is always full of smackheads

Clubs

Passions IS a Cattle Market, full of dirty old slappers who think its (still) cool to dance round their handbags to Steps whilst touching up poor unsuspecting teenagers. Isis has shut down (the legend has gone - Madisons, for those too young too remember, it was the dogs you know whats!) Fusion is about the best spot to go and get high on jimmy riddles and laugh at the bouncers when they follow you around the spot thinking that we dont notice, they even had a sniffer dog and a dog in their one night, one was an alsation and one was Joanne Fatlock!

Famous Residents

If you see a scruffy git with greesy blonde hair and face like a bull dog licking piss of a thistle and he asks you for 20p, fag or lighter then you have met our famous town idiot, yes you have got RAYMOND STARKY he is pretty easy to spot he is either as pissed as a fart or high on either petrol or glue, if he as you for a light give hime one and run like hell. also steeve macmahrn from seaton who has a son with a head bigger than his body, steeve is a bit of a loner none of his neighbours in seaton like him, cos no one like him he tries to run you over, phone the police if you play football in 100 yard radious of his house, he also stares at you from his house with binoculars, sad or what!!! if you see him give him the 2 finger salute well all us whitestile lads do!!! FINALLY there is a scruffy escaped little mad man from dovenby hospital(mental asylumn) who thinks everyone is his friend when in fact everyone takes the piss out of him, he is a 40 year old paperboy (a bit like the waterboy but very very smelly and scruffy) you can find him wandering around town selling his holy papers and you can find him around town waisting his money on gamblers

wakefield
here goes for Wakefield-
Hook-up Spot (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs -- a bench, a corner: you name it.)

Argos corner - central to all the pubs!
It's not there anymore, the old bus station clock. Dunno where to go now
Outside Supercigs, near the market house.
Don't believe what people say. I've been to Wakefield many times and have NEVER seen any whores on Argos corner, it's all a hoax, Wakefield's pretty boring when you think about it. Don't hook up anywhere. go somewhere interesting instead like Leeds or Sheffield, or why not try Normanton, it's great at this time of year so I hear!

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Back oop north!
www.
Quality!!!!

Hook-up Spot (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs -- a bench, a corner: you name it.)

There is no hook-up spot at all.
This has to be in the bus station like all the other 13 goung on 30 year olds
a gr8 hook up spot is weatborough
down mighty mighty mirf and up noristhorpe
w h smiths
Top of Halifax Road near the Shoulder of Mutton. There is a bus stop that is fun to sit at and watch the traffic. Or stay dry if it is raining.
the hook up spot area in Dewsbury savile town is outside the shell petrol station people just look at lasses and think they are bigtime u know what i mean
THORNHILL PARK WHERE ALL THE SCHOOLIES GO TO GET PISSED AND RANDY ON THE HILL (MOUNTAIN ROAD) GETTING DRUNK AND ROLLING DOWN IT OR ON GAS BOARDS (SPEAD FREAKS ONLY)
Dewsbury Bus Station - Cool!!! Longcauseway - if you want that special someone for the night (nudge nudge, wink wink)!!!!

Oh dear, I used to live near Thornhill park and went to Thornhill High School too :$ :$ I also went to college at the top of Halifax road!!! :S

Pubs and Cafe's
The Black Bull pub in the Market Place has been called that for over 100 years now, and the local paper threat it like it's a listed treasure-but you can't 'the kids'-it's not very good and no amount of expensive refits will disguise it. Same goes for 'Jack D's' just up the road. It's not only on thin copyright ice, but it's EXACTLY the same place it was before it's makeover,it just has a different name and front.
Rosey's Bar in Ravey
red lion in heckmondwike rules
princables and jack'ds
good pub up near bank and mc'donalds its on the corner
yes loads , some not too bad ones
West Riding, West Riding, West Riding!
SCARBOROUGH HOTEL(GOTTIES BAR)Thornhill-Great beer and crowd,pity Peter has'nt learnt how to fill a pint glass-should'nt have a problem he's pulled enough-oh I see "sorry wrong pub" and "trust Peter he's a judge" - from a local boozer from Doubting Rd----which is not to be dimolished
All Crap!
Excellent food and great bar staff at the Bath Hotel.
TIME PIECE AND TP WOODS
The Black Tulip? Thats going back a while, now it's called the Oak and Acorn. The Bath Hotel and the Woodman are pretty nice. Everywhere else dominated by rockers and townies
Black Bull - great on a Thursday night. Duke of ~Wellington (for horizontally challenged people). Black Tulip. Market Tavern.
Cafes and coffee shops

Watsons untyil the bailiffs came in
never been in but i pass a place called vals
again dewsbury has loads of these
loads
typically North English type places
Chatter's coffee shop. Bus station Cafe. Branch Christian Bookshop coffeeshop. Sainbury's (they do a mean chicken curry - go after 5 and you get two for the price of one!!) real value to shout about. URC coffee mornings (great for passive smokers and those who want lung cancer). Bakerys on Longcauseway.

Cringing Cult of Celebrity (Famous residents and ex-residents.)

Greg Rusedski's mum and Betty Boothroyd the famous tiller girl
that one with blonde hair off coronation street
The Bronte sisters went to school for a year in Dewsbury, and was the first place they wrote poetry (apparantly they hated the place)
Eddie Waring ("R-r-r-r-ugby" and "its an up and under") was born in Dewsbury...someone had to, and why not it be an untalented boorish rugby commentator!
The guy who was the band leader on the Titantic was from Dewsbury. Robert Palmer is from Batley.
Greg Rusecski's Grandmother was born in Dewsbury.(She really was you know!) Stan LAurel once lived in Staincliffe.
Betty Boothroyd grew up here as well as MP Marcus Fox.

upper street
on the green itself!
Nowhere in mind, maybe virgin @ the angel browsing for cd's

Whoever compiled your notes on Islington deserves a good kick up the backside. The word inadequate springs to mind.
canal park -full of underage drinkers and kids smoking the reef!!
:D :D We start them young down here!


Clubs

the garage in highbury and islington.
Got demolished to build a shopping centre, try pirate radio Soundz 94.3 cover the whole of london
