  • Hey, Im an Australia who just moved to dartford, dont no many people yet, and havent been clubbing round this way yet! im shocked at the posts, seems like half of u love this ZEN place and half think its for 14 yr old whores. I have been up to amadeus and thort it was really good, they let me in and im 17! had cheap drinks all night and lots of security, sure the boys were very full on, but i guess u can expect that from most clubs round here right? It is pretty scary this idea of every1 gettin knifed round here and all the talk. but i guess it is about what u party with, not where u r.

  • Train Station
  • highfield youth club tis gdgd
  • Bluewater seems to be the hot spot on saturdays, loads of ppl turn up but if your not of the alternative style dont go out to the back (posh bit) lakes. Also in bluewater the stairs outside Virgin are popular for the same kinda kids as some really "fit" ppl work in Oniel (downstairs) and Virgin (upstairs). All in all, all of the dartford hang outplaces seem to be slowly shifting over to Bluewater. When did people start hanging out on Miskin road? Theres too many kids (there being 3 schools in the same 200 metres)despite the bad points of Dartford and hangin out on Miskin road, you actually get some pretty clever kids round there (that is if they go to a grammar school) so really not every kid age 12 - 16 is a loudmouth, dumb idiot, so whoever said that is more than wrong

  • dont ever cum up temple hill,its real deep, you get jumped 4 20p an put in hospital,you mans beter act sharpish!!!! menaces of society!!!!
  • Shreeji's on Shepherds Lane ain't too bad until about 4 on school days. Normally find mec up there, so Dartford ain't all bad. It all depends on who you know here, and well most of the people you will know'll be chavs because well Dartford suffers from deep-seeded unrban decay! I find that as long as you got the fun-going attitude then Dartford ain't too bad, and I've lived here about two years now, but compared to Blackheath/Lewisham where I used to live Dartford seems too shine
  • Babs lyks it up the batty at dggs! dggs is the dogs bollocks watch out world! the chavs r cool coz none of them r actuali chavs its all an act theyre all wanabees just lyk me. the fav spot to hang out r the bushes at dggs coz theyre spikey braaaaaaaaaap! and tree estate of corz wot would we do without it. oh n the fish n chip shop on mead road in lycra hotpants. big up louisa at the chip shop opposite the co-op by the orange treee.ye blad go smoke sum weed wit the breddas.Big up all the dartford bois n girlies. dartford myt b shit but shit tastes good so suck out u fuckers coz ur mum the 2nd is watchin n she b after u if u chat ne more shit up our endz init. come dwn my yard if u wana chat a bizzle shizzle ma nizzle. im outy... wun
  • Safe to all the KF krew and yra i jamm in dartford and themsmead i jamm with my krew in bexlyheath
  • Dartford park full of Junkies and drunks nowadays something you all should know.Not a very pleasent area so watch out for scum mugging you!!!As i should know i grew up on heath lane
  • Dartford is a SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT hole. I don't live there, but I go to the Girls' Grammar. I think one of the reasons all the girls hang around waiting for guys (or as they aptly put it, going 'boy hunting') Is because there are two all girls schools. I'm not excusing their behavoir, though- it's dangerous. And Dartford is just like a Medieval farming village, but with less culture.
  • Dartford is a hole. Like many I have lived here all 21 years of my life and I just don't fit in. I go to my local pub and it's over run with little neds wanting to fight everyone- no decent people my own age in there unless they come with me! The town centre is a dump. Thank God we have Bluewater to keep us sain (even there the chairs outside ted baker get mobbed, but these tend to be kids who aren't hard enough to hang around in the town centre, or there parents wont let them ;-)) If your thinking about coming to Dartford, take my advice, Don't!
  • I am a 15 year old girl from Temple Hill, and I think all you wankers who think that Dartford is a shithole should take a look around Thamesmead you braindead pricks. There isn't anything wrong with Dartford...name me one place that doesn't have rudies in... And I would also like to point out that not all Dartford are slags and pikies...It' s just you mingers that attract them...You telling me that you wouldn't shag a blonde bird with big tits? Yeah fucking right!!!!!! Dartford may be full of chavs, but at least we ain't snobs who's heads are shoved up there arses
  • Waitrose car park to ave a round on da 1er
  • Dartford used to have so much soul and history. Now's it's just a couple of more nails in the coffin away from being dead and buried. "Teenage Wasteland" springs to mind.
  • i is a rude boy ov dartford n blu wata is well near dartford dont take time to get there. tat where i meet ma fit gals. yea n a ook up spot is like dartford park emanow.
  • I think all of you are exceptionally immature and are stereotyping just the youth of Dartford. Im a youth council member supposedly representing the tarts and pikeys of Dartford. There are pikeys everywhere in the country, but Dartford isn't that bad. We have 2 of the best Grammar schools in Kent and most of the pikeys have left for bluewater now anyway.
  • My fav hang out spot is inside the priory centre on sundays when every thing is shut,(this is when there r no pikeys pissin me off).
  • I have lived in Dartford for 11 years and having holidayed loads in this country I must agree with everyone here (the majority)that Dartford is a hole. All the Chavs threaten to mame you as soon as you go near them, especially round Temple Hill.
  • The YMCA bus stop, top tooty there after the schools from round there kickout.
  • DARTFORD IS A HOLE. THE KIDS HERE NEED A BLOODY GOOD SLAP IN THE MOUTH AND EACH ONE OF YOU LITTLE WANNA B'S SHITS WILL LEARN THE HARD WAY. YOU WANT TO ACT LIKE GROWN UP THEN THE 'REAL' GROWN UPS WILL TREAT YOU LIKE ONE AND GIVE YOU WHAT THEY WOULD TO SOMEONE THEIR AGE. NO MORE STANDING FOR THESE BRATS, YOU DON'T GET A SMACK IN YOUR HOME BY YOUR PARENTS YOU 'WILL' GET MANY ON THE STREET WHERE YOU FEEL ALL HIGH AND MIGHTY IN FRONT OF YOUR MATES, TIMES UP KIDS, IF YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH THE GROWN UPS YOU WILL REGRET IT.

  • I live in Temple Hill and i hate all those 16 year old hoody n baseball cap wearing sheep who sit on the bench and harrass people. It's not a good hook up spot, its for saddos with no life and nowhere else to go.
  • Hello Im a mature Dartfordian 29 in fact and yes have 2 kids I used go to the highfeild youth centre and buy my drink in Circle C which was a 5 min walk away and get drunk out of my box on a friday night & used to hang around in all the other places mentioned like Icelands car park( then woolworths) and The car park By the Co op and behind barcleys bank and roseberry gardens not to mention Wilmot park or the feilds that were behind Dartford Girls and dartford boys high schools, Nothing changes eh ????? Half my school seemed to be preggers before we left it and then went on to have more little sprogs later. Dartford will always be the same There aint alot for Youths of today to do in Dartford so Dont blame em if they wanna get drunk and mess around a bit & stuff I used to. RESPECT. Keep up the Good Reputation eh (NOT).

  • DARK ALLY WAY
  • The best thing about dartford has got to be THE TRAIN LEAVING IT!!!! Dartford it a shithole!!
  • One of the outside car parks in Bluewater. No car ever parks there + there are no security cameras = opportunity for some havoc!!
  • To all those having a go at "boy racers" in the various carparks in dartford,is it that wrong.would you rather us follow the rest of the hoard down to Zens,to enduldge in a on going deluge of drink,drugs,ugly women,unfriendly gypsies,rude staff,stuck up women(who only look at you if you have the lattest gear on ie.stupid sweat bands,ripped george micheal jeans old t-shirts that r way 2 small.)way over priced entry and bevereges and of course ppl starting on u for no damn reason!...so ur lives r so much better?well i no ware id rather be,with my m8s and not a complete bunch of strangers.By the way girls you no ur begging for a lift after zens!...Hernandez no1 AKA ZENAH DEE LYRICAL G.
  • Isn't the little bit by the orchard centre toilets such a great place to meet. Especially if you want to see loads of teenage kids with nothing better to do hanging around!
  • Dark corner of central park. Car park by the library, as long as you've got a stab jacket.
  • well der r many spots to sk8 in but if i waz ui i would check out 1 bell law courts, behind avenue owh and were we usally hang swanley sk8 park if ure intrested bout coming and checking it out just com out and ask every one weather dey're pegg and sk8 wit us it will rock also check me website out www.freewebs.com/da1sk8crew
  • I'm sorry, but i felt i had to put this to rest. i myself live in dartford. i have been to all the so called 'good' clubs, such as zens and the libarary (now air and breathe) fat sams and the biZniz. they are all crap. yes dartford is full of pikey wannabes, and full of 14 year pregnant girls give will give you a quick fuck or suck for a ride in your car or a few one penny sweets, but this does not mean that everyone in dartford form one of these two groups of people, its just that they do not congruate around such crappy locations, they have long since realised that garage music is poor, and that going to such lame excuses for venues such as zens is a waste of time, theyre full of pikey assd twats who get pissed on a single beer and try to blade you for accidently glancing at them in passing, or their disturbing ugly and young girlfriends, so much makeup and gold im surprised that they can lift their heads, not that they should be drinking since most of them are pregnant. the more sensible have realised that the solution is to venture outside of dartford, go up london, where the proper clubs are, or just hjave a damned house party, where no fucking prats are invited. just becuase you go to zens and see a bunch of juvanile pikey shits dont assume all of dartfordians are like that, only retarded people with limited education and iq go to such places....
  • any gay pubs??????????
  • The Litten Tree where Mr. King a teacher at DGS gets all his younger women...the pimp! the paedo!
  • Most people tend to meet up by B+Q carpark, next to the new Pizza Hut. Yeah, its rubbish, but its where we meet. Locals are the DOS crew, DOS for life...
  • i would say that dartford lakes is a hook-up spot because that is where i met me boyfriend who i have been with for nearly a year now. And homebase carpark where me mate runaway with her ex boyfriend
  • wheres the bitch gone emma c in the alley at the litten tree but hell me get another me julie for real big up to the tan man for passing the pen to the choc star fish taker she to rass for my bling thing...ec took me blood luv you all white bitches
  • Dartford must be the only place in the whole world that actually has a monument to a Pisshole or to give it its real title a Urinal. If you don't believe me check out the plaque on the wall half way up East Hill. Amazingly the thousands of pikeys/chavs that live in Dartford haven't vandalised it yet. Dartford really is the king of pissholes.
  • just for a change could someone with half a brain go to dartford market as i need too serve someone there who can put more than two words together with out having to look at a script (yep i work there )
  • Aint ne1 bin up on da roof of barclays banc. sweet place to do some shit. rob da banc iz wot we tried, not good! Or wot bout dat old college fing by the barclays car parc, used to b able to get in dere but da council blocked it up wid sum phat metal panels os shit lyke dat!

  • Dartford Park with a big bottle of white lightning. Oh dear god why? Please don't hook up with anyone there, you will never be seen again
  • Unless you what's coined as a Townie/Chav, you won't find anything in Dartford for you. If you are however may I suggest Iceland carpark, Barclays carpark, infact anywhere there's cars because i'm sure you'll find a new friend for yourself, something to steal, or maybe your lost uncle who's actually your brother! (after stealing your wallet and selling you lucky heather).
  • The abandoned warehouse or adult education centre wateva it is next to the park is a good place to ave a larf.
  • Ok, so there are areas in Dartford that seem to attract the world and it's pikeys, but seriously it is not that bad a place. I've grown up here for 10 years since coming from a place worse than this one..... yes, Swanscombe. Admittedly there are people in this town who are absolutely obsessed with themselves (such as a particular girl at DGGS) but it's not like there are not things to do. By the way since when was Rosemary Gardens the shag spot???? I can think of better and more risky places than that!!!
  • ok just read da site, well funny but not all blimin dartford ppl r tarts/pikies etc tho i admit most r!it aint al dat bad just d f*ckin pikies in it hu start on ppl 4 no reason U NO HU U R. aint u hard??! yes i'm sorry d tights r mine..BUT only coz...i fell off d swing n kinda ripped em lol. its alrite place but ppl do live round der so hmm...neways ders always BLUEWATER lol loadza luv xox p.s dggs is not shit fnx...wel d rules r but hu cares :D luv ma m8s! Ema, Lauren, Sophy, KT, Connie n Zahra! lol ;)
  • I agree the bench opposite the esso garage just past Roseberry Gardens playin fields is where I hang about and Im a 14 yearold wid nothin to do on the weekend. BUT Dartford an't all that bad come on look at Bexleyheath at 10.3pm!!!! Yeah u get bois tootin at u whereva u wlk but hey thats a gigggle, every1 likes a bit of attention dnt they?!!!! Id advise you not to go to the "RING" park in tree estate at 10pm in the half term! Your Just askin to be beaten up! Macccy DS is shit- dnt eat the food but the peps that work in the centre of Dartford and the ones u need to respect!!!
  • ive ended up on this web site by accident and i cant believe some of the stuff ive seen. stuff about Dartford bein the worst place on earth, well the people writing this crap has proberly never left dartford or lives in a posh areas like higham. have you visted abbey wood or thamesmead lately? or maybe south bermondsey? Ive lived on temple hill all my life and although its not a great place to be i can think of places a lot worse! (ie the places above). so why dont stop slagging off dartford off and look at the good stuff and who really gives a shit about what like pikeys think? cos if you do your as bad as (and as sad as) them. ps the pubs in dartford are great!
  • Only pikeys and single mothers hang around in Temple Square.The rest of us have better things to do.Perhaps if you got a job then you'd have better things to do too,or aren't McDonalds recruiting at the moment?
  • temple hill square where me n ma bredrins link an wreck up da place u get me all temple hill squad and m.o.s crew.
  • There's nothing wrong with Dartford - its the people that live there that are the problem. Have any of you visited Bexleyheath lately - Dartford is paradise in comparison - you think you've got problems with teenage yoof!!
  • dunno bout pubs in dart ford, dont rick it too many pickies/chav's,
  • The little park at the end of Penney Close (that little road off of Miskin Road) is a current favourite of the drunk teenage yobs. Look out for discarded pairs of tights, old condom wrappers and smashed WKD bottles.
  • Alldays in Henderson drive, where all the scum of the earth, congregates in one place!
  • can i just say i have lived in dartford for all of my 19 years and yes it is a shit hole. i am a grunger and for all those sad fuckers that cust grungers, wen u walk around in your army of ten year old chavs that are completly braindead and and think you are 'ard wen u take drugs and drinks. fuck you! a-thankyou
  • I would try around the west hill area, there are alot less wannabe pikeys up that area. There are still pikeys up there but they are easier to get along with but you have to be between 13-17.
  • Bell end corner is a favourite with the mini shlags of our fair town. ANd then there is Roseberry Gardens, home to all the local ard-nuts. Just do what I do-growl and flash your studded belt and wrists, or perhaps throwshit. in the end they will back off, as they want to keep their burburry's nice&clean innit. power
  • im 15 and live in the pikey shit hole they call dartford, but i must admit we do have sum good times on the various benches on princess rd, the pervy 12- 4 am worker in the esso and yes the fav shag spot, roseberry gardens! dggs is shit but hey dartford is fun apart from the grungers, piss off!
  • there seems to be only one place for people to hang out in dartford and that's the oh so trendy 'iceland' car park. hell yeah what more could you want watching the 'oney'.
  • I fucking pray that if nuclear war ever breaks out, the first point to be hit will be dartford, its not a town, its not a place, its a fucking pisspot and should be classified on maps as the arsehole of nowhere.
  • Dartford park.
  • Carpark opposite Zen watching those fantastic looking girls going in!
  • i can think of 2 major hook up spot's, one is one bell corner at about 5:30pm, the other is the multi-storey near zen's 2:00am after 5 hours of watching pikeys jump about like a retarded chimp thinking they are doing a cool dance.
  • Alright geez. I is a chav and Dartford is da bomb. It is well good to go and sit wi me mates. If you is dissing me home town, tat is well hurt. We go to the car park in me bad boy nova and sit there blarin out me tunes. We is wicked! I go to tha biznis coz it is full of well classy laydeez. Me and me cru go and shout at grungers coz they look weird, not like us - we dress well smart wi me nike tn's and me trousers tucked in my socks and shit. we try and get our hats as high on our eads as possible - we is well good.
  • there is no places in dartford to hang out apart from the brothal.
  • Dartford could possibly be the worst place in england. i have to go there every day to go to my poxy college, and therefore spend a greaqt majority of my time in the town. Zens is the biggest craphole ever, the official under 18s party. noone seems to have mentioned biznis which is an even bigger dive. lucy me got to spend last saturday nite in that pikey hole, something i would happily do never ever again
  • From reading the above, the running theme is that Dartford is the arsehole of England. As a resident of Dartford I agree. However rather than leave it destroy itself, why not get in there first and destroy it! Let's face it - Bluewaters got all the commercial industry now leaving Dartford with nothing regarding commercial industry - well it has got the monopoloy on pound shops. So lets knock it down and rebulid it with large casino resorts like Las Vegas. Perhaps we could then re-name it "DARTVEGAS".
  • I live in Dartford, I know. Well theres allways rudes hangin on every corner. Oh yeah, dont go Temple Hill Square after dark. Theres guaranteed to be a bunch of dicks who think theyre hard cause theyre with theyre mates and will start on anyone who walks within eyeshot.
  • well, back in the day, it was the bench opposite the 24 hour esso on princess road, easy access to munchies, mates house and rosemary garderns. I would actually still prefer to do this than to venture into most pubs in dartford.
  • Don't you all realise that we live in historic Dartford, with a church in the town centre which is over 1000 years old and which was an important stop-off point for those travelling on the Pilgrims Way? We also have a little museum! Having said that, modern-day Dartford is pretty vile, awash with foul-mouthed spotty boys with baseball caps, freaks of nature, people who think that a Harvester is the height of cuisine, and teenagers with prams. Be warned: when you see a group of women aged 0-30 in Dartford, there are at least 4 generations represented there. However, drive 5 minutes or so out of Dartford and you are in the countryside, surrounded by fields, flowers and lovely country pubs. Enjoy!
  • Helllo dartford is great!!! yer rite!!!! I must say though not all dartford girls are slags I am certanly not!!! But then I am probablyy the only one!! Oh and the councel car park is where I used to hang out coz I am sooooo cool!! Or at least that is what I thought when I was 12!!!
  • I've lived in Dartford all my life and have to agree with the majority of postings on this site - ie, it's getting worse. I don't object to the brain dead teenagers getting drunk or knocked up - if you live there, you know where to go and where not to go. If there's one thing that just keeps dragging Dartford further and further down, it's the pikeys - they know they're braindead, inbred, mutant, thieving gipsy bastards, with no idea of how to behave in normal society, but until someone comes up with a plan on how to rid the town of it's worst plague since the black death, things won't get better.
  • My ex is from Dartford. We always used to hang out on benches, there's so many of the goddamn things.....away from the chavs though who tried to beat the 7 shades of shit out of us at every opportunity. If you're not a townie you get abuse all of the fucking time. I used to think that Dartford was ok, I was even gonna move in with my b/f but he turned out to be a prick so now I've got no reason for visiting the wonderul Dartford.......
  • uh, if you're unfortunate to be in Dartford then don't leave your house, arrange to hook up with people in your house and don't answer the door to anyone else. I was there for three years and the only thing it's given me is respect for everywhere else.
  • Tesco express, shouting "have that" at people and things. Before drinking our lives away in this shitty little town as we wonder over there
  • I consider myself fortunate. As you can tell, for a young man who enjoyed spending part of my formative years in this middle sized settlement, I am somewhat unique for a "Dartfordian" in that I boast a vocabulary that stretches a little beyond allowing one to order a Big Mac and a bottle of meths. I was fortunate enough to escape this hellhole at just the right age, moving to areas who's culture runs an Escort Cosworth with go faster stripes. That said, my time in the cultural and intellectual wasteland that is the small Kent town should not be considered wasted; rather more, I see it as an innoculation of sorts, to build up my immune system against the pikey, meths swilling residents I used to call my neighbours. Would I advise anyone to visit Dartford? Definately. Starting out in the city center on a Saturday night and driving out of the city is arguably the best way of mapping the path of human evolution - from the pikey 14 year olds in their puffy jackets and bleached blonde hair communicating in a series of grunts, the more you progress, the more advanced the spiecies becomes.
  • Where isn't there a hook-up (or even a hooker) spot in this dump. I have lived here all 18 miserable years of my life and if there is a seedy alley then there is guaranteed to be some pikey doing something illegal. There isn't one point to meet up, but amognst the most popular are the Bull and Vic, the corner of the 1-er by the Bull and Vic, and just outside (yes you guessed it) the Bull and Vic. p.s. if you are a newcomer driving in at night, avoid at all cost the 1 way system, and don't park (as 1 of my mates did) in the car park by Central Park at 11 o'clock at night, as you are likely to be knifed by the XR3i cru.
  • I temporary lived in Dirty Dartford for 18 months - it was the longest 18 months of my life. I have never seen so much crap all over the place in one very small town - we actually had neighbours that threw their unwanted furniture into their gardens. What is the point of that? And what about all those gold sovereigns on the fingers/necks........ nice quality!!
  • The bench outside the front of Argos is always chocka with 14 year old little pricks who are running around screaming all over the place, usually on a Saturday afternoon when I'm leaving work and have to walk past them. And I'd also just like to say that the people in Dartford are the rudest. I work in a shop in Dartford and have had loads of wanky customers with nothing better to do other than shout and threat over stupid pathetic things which don't really matter. On the other hand, Dartford is a lot nicer than Erith where I use to live.
  • The alley that runs behind The Malt Shovel into the town centre. Ideal for avoiding walking past the learing kebab- shop owners on East Hill. Don't feel afraid either. A mirror is conveniently placed there so you can check its safe before running through!!!
  • The park, where nasty minded individuals find it amusing to set fire to tramps for no apparent reasaon, so best be wary of this one after dark. Benches, car parks street corners everywhere.
  • kia kebabs is becumin da spot 2b seen!!!!
  • Taking a stroll through Dartford these days is like having a day out at a safari park without a car.Only far less pleasant and educational.
  • Who's that idiot who drives round in that purple corsa - D4**B (or something like that, could quite catch it)? When you going to learn how to drive mate?
  • hook up spots more like hooked on drugs spot
  • Me and my mates used to meet up on the green slopes by the steps on east hill. Good to take six acid there and watch the town center take off
  • Dartford is shit! why the fuck would anyone wanna hook up there! Speaking as a recent addict to the dartford social system i have turned to excessive drug use! it makes dartford seem even more colorless and horrid than it is already. I have tried to make an effort to understand the boy racing pricks but have decided they are no longer worth the mind time...(lets just put it down to small shithole town sindrome, where everyone thinks they are harry the hatchet..fuk em all especially all of those that associate themselves with the RICHARD DARROCK GEEZA lifestyle...am i gong on a bit???) Anyway pleese do go to Dartford to realise a shithole isnt always dangerous its just a shit hole and with loads of chavi wanna be gypsie orphan childern givin it the 'aalllllritee geeza gimme a fag...please' its not. So my advice...get some skunk and just take time in smoking it berorf you get to the BUll and Vic and then spending the rest of the night contemplating why everyone...and i do mean everyone in there is such a complete and utter wankdribble!!!!!! thankyou to all those who hate it as much as i do!
  • Dartford is Good, and if you wanna say that Dartford is shit then come down on a saturday night and go round saying it then you'll be in the NEW "Darent valley hospital" with a broken nose and various other breakages! if u want a shit hole then Swanley is for you! theres a new club in dartford called 3D FORMELEY S &L ! Get back to me if you have any problems understanding my comments. DJ Pirate
  • The benches outside gala bingo! Perfect for eating ur Maccy Dees and watching the men go by!
  • For anyone who isn't a foetus:Zens, Fat sams (the biznisness or whatever??) any street corner, outside any of the schools around3-4pm (and yes that includes primary schools), outside Maccy D's, the benches by the magistrates court (rather ironic seeing as they are likely to end up in there the next morning)...Dartford park, anywhere you go, you can find a willing minger.
  • The craze for the summer is going to be Dartford Park yet again, sitting at the top of that really unstable ropey pyrimad thing with all ur m8s,some alcohol/fags and MaccyDs. Been there done it fun while it lasted but dont try anything u'd normally do in a bed coz its bloody uncomfortable!!
  • I know Dartford is crap - however my parents still live there, in the nicer parts - i.e West hill and outwards, so please stop slagging all dartfordians off and concentrate on the little mouthy shits who seem to get younger every year!!
  • by the time the kids are old enough to meet up & think about going somewhere there will be somewhere which will admit them & sell them intoxicating material
  • Dartford park, 12:30am, bring a bottle of white lightning and your little brother and you'll be laughing!!!
  • Can i point out to the contemptible little shits who hang around in the car park in Market Street that car parks are for parking cars in and not supposed to be the basis of your entire social life,you sad feeble tossers.More importantly if i ever find out which one of you braindead retards smashed my reverse light when i last parked my car there i'll ram your vacant,gormless faced,baseball cap clad head down your neck you spineless turd.
  • Well,it was the Horton Kirby Paper Mill back in 1963 when I met Rosemary Steer.I'm an American from Calif. who arrived on the Queen Mary from New York to Southampton with $28 in my pocket and no return ticket.Bought a bike and rode to Horton Kirby where I landed a job at the mill.Mr Salmon owned it then,and my Rosemary worked there.
  • This site is superb! Wonderful! The hook up spot has got to be the train station, dreaming of the way out. "Welcome to Dartford, It's the end of the line"
  • None worth going to. Actually, its best not to linger too long anywhere.
  • Dartford High Street, Priory Centre. The Bull and Vic would usually serve kids with a beer. Just put on a mean face and deep voice.
  • Noone seems to have written on this site for a while.Could it be due to the fact that most Dartford residents are probably illiterate?
  • The latest place to find the boy racers is now barclays car park, with all the sad little dickheads with tinsel and christmas lights around their aerials and windows
  • To the guy who keeps having a go at Zen's, i assume you are the type of guy who used to own a blue escort and no doubt is now a member of the police force (obviously not in dartford). My advice is to relax go with the flow and be the "daddy" to all the young girlies in Dartford.
  • In Dartford 14 year olds don't have to hang out on street corners anymore.They quite happily let them in the pubs and serve them alcohol before spewing them back out onto the streets at closing time to beat the crap out of each other or get each other pregnant.
  • You can tell how moronic people in Dartford are by the fact that none of them seem to have mastered the mechanics of how a bin works.Too challenging for their limited brain capacity I suppose which is why you constantly have to wade through mounds of shit when taking a stroll in Dartford.
  • As a more mature Dartfordian (23 - with.....OMIGOD, no kids!) i remember when the only two hang-out places to be seen in were the YMCA at West Hill and the Highfield - which was handily next to a Circle C where you could buy K cider and Thunderbird at the tender age of 14. Do people still go there? Oh, and one bell corner...after the loony religious nuts had packed up their bibles for the day.
  • Lets see - I live in Dartford leave the town centre and head west past the closed down hospital and old YMCA carry on up Shepards lane and u reach the heath a nice spot amung the crap hole that is Dartford. Indeed Barclays car park is the place to be but not all us Dartford girls are cheap slags. Most are but some of us have respect i.e. the ones with the brains. If u want to see nice parts of Dartford town centre, forget it. DATRFORD SUCKS ARSE!!!
  • Hook-up spot eh! How about Joyce Green hospital after all the local retards have finished kicking the shit out of each other on a Saturday night.
  • if you want to get away from all the junky kids in dartford you could allways try the local schools garunteed to be empty all week for our convenience. you might want to avoid the east hill of dartford you may be attacked by a bunch of pre-pubesent wannabe pikies. dartford is just a bed and breakfast for me i get out as early as i can to avoid its tacky elizabeth duke wearing tarts.
  • The town centre - why not indulge in a bit of good hearted back breaking, jaw slamming, stomach kicking fun with the locals. Time : straight after the respectable daytime shoppers have gone home
  • The blokes hang around anywhere they might be able to get into a fight because that seems to be the favourite pastime in Dartford for people with bollocks for brains.The girls hang around anywhere they might get knocked up because they're all cheap tarts.I can't possibly express in words how much I loathe Dartford and despise it's residents.I challenge anyone to come up with a good point about Dartford.
  • Mulit Storey Car Park near Zen
  • Erm The top of Stone Place Road, Stone is where all the kids r hanging around, "can u go in the shop for me and get me 10 Mayfair and a bottle of white lighting?" is what u get all the time.
  • Has to be the Iceland car park. You can laugh at all the boy racers in their shit Corsa's (the car of Dartford) and nackered old xr3's.
  • Co op mulit storey car park!!!!! Yeah nice one its pants and there is an arshole that drives around Dartford like a pratt with a baby in the car, gone 2 o clock in the morning!!!!! Sick idot
  • I was one of those 'little tarts' who used to hang around Maccy D's and of course the park. However I am now abroad and am dreading the day my niece starts to hang around Dartford. There is nothing else for 13 - 16 year olds to do, don't be too harsh.
  • The benches near the magistrates court are full of little girlies waiting for any pimply male who can lend them a fag.
  • Icelands Car park is back in fashion people, with all the mugs driving around Dartford, and all the wannabe traveller girls giving it the large but as soon as a traveller comes along they shut up and put there heads to the ground
  • The car park by the main bus stops is home to teenage passion wagons on Friday and Saturday nights. Little tarts almost queing up to bounce around in the souped up Cortinas for 5 minutes of breathless gropings.
  • Dickie Eastwood has been in Prison for the last 5 years u silly idot. The new hook up spot is in Barclays car park and it is full of 16 year old girls with they babies at 2 o clock in the morning trying to find another dad for there babies, like the kids haven't already had 50 dad already in 6 months.
  • To the person that said there are no decent people in Dartford, that's because all the decent people choose not to 'hang out' in the shite-hole town that are full of market people. I might live there, but only cos it's cheap, I wouldn't dream of building a life there for myself.
  • Must agree with the person who said Dartford is a hole.If you can be bothered to wade through all the knee high crap and McDonald's cartons on the pavement it's only to find all the decent shops have closed and turned into `pound' shops.Most of the locals are peasants and the pubs are full of kids.Personally I think they should concrete over Dartford and turn it into a crazy golf course.
  • As a outsider to the area just recently arrived I have noticed what a hole Dartford is. Lets mention all the ear ring wearing Kevins driving their done up rude boy XR3s. Tell me the truth, have you ever seen a half decent women in Dartford thats not pushing a pram. Not to mention the excellent Zen's which, seems to have an under 16 only policy at the door. But on the good side, Iam glad that Bluewater where you scum stay away has been built!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!
  • Outside the Shreeji newsagents at about 4.pm on a school day buying & eating sweets!
  • The Dartford one-way system, preferably in your older brothers battered fake Escort Mexico.
  • The gardens outside the library are a good spot at aboout 1pm Sat night as the legendary Dickie Eastwood picks the latest blooms for his pleasure.
  • Outside McDonalds
  • As alrady mentioned, outside MaccyD's. Not to forget though the limitless cretins who hang around in the Iceland car park waiting to drive around the one way system (which has apparently been recently upgraded *specifically* for the purpose with the addition of a sort of chichane near the bus stop). Needless to say these are people who are *easily* old enough to go to the pubs and club (singular) so should know better.
