  • HANGER 13 CLOSING CAUSE U LOT JUST DONT KNOW HOW TO LIVE ONLY 3 PEOPLE DIED OF THERE OWN ACTIONS
  • the quaility of gash
  • Some of the uncoolest people seem to live around Ayr!
  • No pubs in the town centre with much class or style for anyone older than 20. The Labour run council. The amount of rubbish that floats about the place... who's the lazy pig that's eating/drinking all those crisps, big macs and bottles of Evian / Irn-Bru?
  • Nothing. Living in other places has shown me that Ayr, although independent from larger towns and cities, is still connected strongly, having transport running all night in some occasions, an extensive selection of shops and pubs and clubs, amazing places for children, a large community feeling, all this. The worst thing about Ayr? Having to spell it to people who live in England and Wales.
  • Not enough loose woman
  • Lack of metal scene or any good record shops, other than Orion. There should be somewhere that has some good gigs!!!!
  • the pink nova, the punto wae the xmas tree lights, the hoggz, the lassies who dnt talk, wee John "the baptiste beast" Reid fae KILLIE!!!
  • WHEN THE HOGGZ APPEAR AND START TO RIP THE HOLE OUTTA FOLK. DO US A FAVOUR GUYS IF YOU READIN THIS, LOOK AT THE PEOPLE HAVIN FUN, SIT BACK N WATCH IF OWT HAPPENS DO YOUR JOB BUT DNT PULL FOLK FOR SITTIN WAE THEIR NEONS ON OR DRIVIN UP THE SHORE SLOW WAE THEIR NEONS ON, AM SURE YOUVE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO WAE YOUR TIME.
  • neds. jeez really just too many. on that note tho they can be easily distracted and i feel when threatened they leave.
  • the scum that live in Lochside
  • The roads....if you're a driver some roads are decent enough, but Prestwick Road, Dalblair Road and John Street are really bad. The road between Safeways and St Margarets school is very patchy, though Fort Street and stretches of South Harbour Street which used to be bad have been resurfaced.
  • The night life is shite. Loads of absolute assholes about.
  • As a driver, I have to say that one of the worst things is the condition of the roads. This goes beyond normal wear and tear. Prime examples are as follows. Dalblair Road, the road from Safeway to the Hospital that passes Belmont and Kincaidston, Castlehill Road I think its called, Fort Street is getting a bit patchy, and the road from Tams Brig to Prestwick. 99% of this is due to shoddy patch jobs by utility companies making it extremely unpleasant to drive in parts of Ayr.
  • The neds. And the fact that it looks quite scabby, particularly the natural disaster area that is Ayr Beach. It's taken the worst bits of being big and the worst bits of being small and combined then!
  • Its a dump
  • BELMONT ACADEMY!!!!!!! KYLE ACADEMY - I should know - I've got to go there.....it should be re-named "Satan's House of Hell"
  • Mr Okeefe horse killer lives in my area.
  • the neds.
  • West Sound. Antique radio, crap FM, whatever you want to call it. The Spam, Tory voting element who think they shite gold.
  • The shitty people, the hideous wedding photos(you know who you are), the clubs, the men, the boys, the beach, the all nighters, cambusdoon, the rugby club, the leaving school, the others who didn't go to our school but wished they did, the common room, the people who are still as narrow minded as ever.
  • There are none.... except for the seagulls
  • I don't live there anymore
  • The Traffic Police are EVERYWHERE down the shore. The speed bumps at the shore.
  • Neds
  • Lack of parking in the town
  • small town mentality
