The Worst Things in Chelmsford, Essex*
The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it
You can tell us more about Chelmsford.
The Worst Things
- Single mums on benefits everywhere, get a bleedin' job you lazy spongers
- the chavs
- The Chav scum that hang outside Maccy D's and High Chelmer led by a small idiot guy with buck teeth. You know who they are
- screeming children! i know ur kids yourself but just tell them to be quiet its not tha difficult!
- Bad achitecture. Manky People. Danger.
- Too many pubs aimed at the 18 - 24 market. If you are over thirty the assumption is you work in London, get drunk in London and can't be bothered with Chelmsford. If Chelmsford had something pitched at over thirties this wouldn't be a self fulfilling prophecy. No local papers want to help promote Live music and other forms of entertainment. It should be their duty to help this town be a cultural haven. It was the Home of Radio once!!!
- nothing!
- the mini chavs the just hang about outside the train station or maccy d's
- Minority of mindless idiots in town centre on a Fri or Sat night. Just steer clear. Expensive train tickets to London (though service is good).
- New Generation Doors, dont deal with them, they will RIP YOU OFF!
- Some people round here have a real, 'i'm better than you attitude', which should be left at home if you ask me!
- Bullies, School
- Anglia Polytechnic University, unprofessionally run, waste of space
- without a doubt the apathetic and winey nature of the residents. what would it take to get up and rectify the problem? lack of music? put on some gigs, no good clubs? start a night, talk to a venue, it's no big deal.
one other point is that if anyone here wants to start a club nite etc... make sure it gets promoted, too many clubs in chelmsford have died because of a lack of publicity!
- the trendies
- army and navy roundabout, its a nightmare since the lights were changed for any one coming from moulsham lodge way!!!
- dddddddduuuuuunnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
- chelmsford sk8 park
- The lack of decent clubs, the number of trendies, the lack of a decent university (i'm an APU student), the lack of car parking and the expense of the car park above the market. Lets face it.... almost everything is equally abismal.
- BORED TEENAGERS
- bleach blonds
- All the scum from London that have moved to Chelmer Village and ruined it.They walk around stinking of b.o. with greasy hair and coffee-coloured children.Also,the clientelle of the "Chelmer Inn" who think they are so hard,wearing football shirts and they havent got the bottle to attend a match!
- buskers and shire hall
- The cost of house prices and cost of general living. It has become very much a commuter town and few locals can actually afford to buy their own house here.
- Its gotta be the people..not all, there are some really cool people and as a whole, Chelmsfords a friendly place, with the exeption of the gangs who stretch their salivaral glands to the limit outside mcdonalds,burger king, the train station and the park (central). Seriously.. -5 degrees and they still stand there, and the thing is..they do it so they can assault younger people..its not unusual for old people and younger teenagers to be assaulted or verbally abused by these gangs. But the police sadly cant crack down on these wiggers and wannabe gangsters
- Friends have been mugged, and me and my boyfriend were hit by some of the trendies just because of what we were wearing...why?
- every trendy shop
- The way they drive..Have any actually passed their tests? The people in Chelmsford are either braindead,two faced or morons, or all three! (maybe its just an Essex thing.)The girls either go around with a threatening look on their faces (think they are hard more stupid!)or they are dressed up like tarts...Very surprised to say this but the men in Chelmsford are'nt as bad (mostly)I lived in Chelmsford for 19 yrs, at the age of 30 decided to leave as its no place to bring up children as people there have no more on their minds then to intimadate people, beat them up or just swear at each other.Moving was the best thing I ever did..Do it now!!
- all the none greebo shops
- the worst thing is there are some snotty people that think they are allat but if u want to get past them just say get out of my face and walk past them if they have ballz they will stand up for them selves if not they will back downa and leave it at that
- Chelmsford Borough Council allowing Hylands Park to be closed off totally to the public all summer in a couple of years so the bloody Scouts can have a Jamboree and dig holes in it and wreak it for the rest of us.
- Melbourne!! and the moody skaters! and the stoopid city application! and town becomes borin very quickly!! everyone knows everyone, its scary!
- BASE, the meadows, Maccy D's.
- the flippin new roundabout on writle/chelmsford road by the new estate that i now have to fuckin walk round
- the mingers that wander around and the girls that thing they are well hard
- The worst thing about my hometown is the scumbag junkies that hang around with the drunks near the kiddies playground,the sooner they all o.d. and die the better,sick of these people intimidating the young mothers and children.
- The trendies. Da place is fuckin full of them. And they start on you if you blink wrongly.
- the worst thing about chelmsford is chelmsford
- Alan Boreham - stealing busus is not dangererous or cool.
- Melbourne.
- too many idiots.
- BEING CHASED/BEATEN UP BY TRENDIES...WHAT THE **** HAVE WE EVER DONE TO YOU???
- the trendies!!!!!!!!!
- People cycling up the High Street!
- H&M, miss selfridge and that batty shop topman.
- TRENDIES
- Goths, Greebos, what eva u wanna call em
- too many cars too few buses and too expensive public transport
- DRINKS PRICES IN DUKES!
- the trendy scene.. sadly this tends to happen in the evening lots of wankers using gallons of hair gell
- The trendies!
- the great lack of men shoes and why dont they ever ever get any new ones in,some one tell me whyy????
- The crime.
- CCTV, Cozzers, Judge Tindals Tavern
- Dukes, Zeus, and the Essex pondlife that frequents them.
- Everything about Chelmsford is awful. It has no night life, no decent jobs, high crime and fights, no music venue and hypocritical politicians. Event he local papers suck. Get out!!! Get out as soon as you can!!
- currently Chelmsford have embarked upon a scheme to dispose of their Council Houses , by selling them to a Housing Company. They claim this will stop rents going up so fast. Logic suggests it is short termism, in the long run rents will soar as the new Housing Company struggles to repay the cost of buying the houses, and doing the alleged repairs, and maintain a resonable service. Also, of course, the tenancy will change from that of being a "secure tenant" to becoming an "Assured tenant". The latter does not give the tenant the same protection as the former. A new group is forming and you can view it on www.smartgroups.com/groups/vern137, and e-mail your views to the group on vern137@smartgroups.com. Also see www. defendcouncilhousing.org.uk/
- Chelmer FM
- the y club full of p**S stinking grebos
- The girls are a bit tarty and all up their own arses
- Chelmer FM, the up-their-own-backsides-cos-they-are-a-big-club-honest Chelmsford City FC fans. They can rot.
- Crap roads; the traffic lights on the Army & Navy; the County Council (wankers); the Borough Council (more wankers), that Mr Bishop who always slates the V concerts and the Spectacular - total tosser! School kids who walk three abreats across the footpath on Broomfield Road.
- Essex Boys/Girls
- Chelmsford
- towns center
- the town center in general
- Moody types who want to fight you to make up for their small member size(or something)
- IT GETS BORING WHEN U R THERE EVERY WEEKEND
- The blandness. You have to go to the surrounding villages to find places with character.
- Dukes boys and dull birds that realm the alleys at night
- Puffa jackets. Boy racers in their souped up XR3i's. Essex FM. Need i say more?
- ALL THE WANKERS AND THE CLUBS
- After afew minutes chelmsford can lose its appeal and it's a really ugly place to live
- You cant get to London quick enough
- The canal's a bit scummy, too many of the shops are identical mainstreamers, feels grim in winter when the wind whips down the High Street. Only go in the summer.
- The worst thing about Chelmsford is the bus station, that horrible stinking place full of buses & fumes. The buses themselves are also pretty useless. They should sort the whole thing out, preferably by knocking it down.
