The Stuff We Can't Fit In Somewhere Else
- Dunstable has nothing. I know. I was born in this town - 46 years ago - and I am still here. Dunstable has been slowly dying for decades.
First it losses A.C. Delco, Vauxhall, then other companies. The council (bastards) tear down the Queensway Hall - I used to go to concerts there, for example Iron Maiden and Hawkwind. I will never forgive the council for that.
The only good things about Dunstable are the Downs, the Gilding Club and the towns long history.
There was one good thing. The demolition of the Windsock, (anyone remember that building?) My god it was a hideous sight.
- People should stop running down Dunstable. Ok the town centre is pretty rubbish at the moment but we are in the middle of a recession, and being negative doesn't help! It's not all about shops and the rest of the town is fine with some lovely residential areas.
- ok, basically dunstable has nothing that you might actually want, anything we did have is either blocked off by the council or turned into some crappy supermarket or bingo hall. dont come here!! the roads are always packed coz all the people who live here are trying to escape! anything fun, interesting, cultural, classy, useful or generally at all positive cant be found in dunstable. shit hole!!!!
- boots, savers, priceless, clarks, stead and simpsons
- please, please, please don't go to dunstable. it is a hell hole. i lived there for 18 pathetic yrs. if u have to go to dunstable i am so sorry about it. if u live there escape as soon as u can. there is nothing to do and no reason to go there. just please, i'm begging u, and i can't stress this enough, dont go to dunstable ever. period. full stop.
- dunstable is the biggest town that has no train station in england!
- Rumors of 1000 square foot skatepark!
