The Worst Things in Colne, Lancashire*

The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Colne.

The Worst Things
  • The little scruffs, theres loads of them about
  • The loss of paving slabs and the ensuing replacement tarmac. This is an ancient town with deep Roman connections and was the centre of the mill town revolution with much of Lancashire's weaving production. The mill chimneys have mostly been demolished and now the pavements have disappeared. Stolen? No - part of the selling-off programme by local idiotic council officials. Now they are buying them back! Ye gods!
  • The train station shelter that smells of p*ss cos someone once peed in it and its never been cleaned since. The dole office when taking in your book of lies (Job Applications) and standing next to a guy covered in fresh plaster being asked the question "Have you done any work in the last 2 weeks", in which the dosser replies "NO".. LYING ****
  • Litter in the streets. Places that don't give Turkish kisses
  • Locals with 1920s mentality.
  • I only live 3 hours away !!
