  • peice hall!
  • DAF RECORDS UNIT 23 THE PIECE HALL HALIFAX.
  • clubs + the new bowling alley
  • The Cell, its best place in town
  • Wide range of people and ideas
  • the places to drink where you feel safe, the upper george, the portman, fagins.....
  • The shopping, limited unless you like charity shops. Walking across the Piece Hall when it's empty, looking at the wedding dresses in Jennas. The moor, Shibden Park. The nice people.
  • All the big headed arrogant twats that think thay are cool walking out of the colly going in to the tube. We all know you are not cool you are just a load of incompitent unemployed pigs.
  • going to work in bradford
  • There are some nice surrounding areas!
  • The best things about Halifax is the fit chav chorer lads that you get , and the teenage nights at the colli (colliseum) and the acca , i have never been in coz i'm only yung , but the storys i hav herd from my big sister , sounds cheap !!! Lol ,
  • The people - except for the choras - and the pubs n clubs are pretty good Its near to Leeds
  • Saturday nights are cool, plus theres around 25 bars and pubs, and around 7 clubs
  • Hipperholme
  • Getting on a train or driving out of Halifax. Funked Up night at Bar Up / Fagins
  • I live there
  • The cherry blossoms by KFC. The Parish church and its glorious bells. The song of the Muezzin drifting from Gibbet Street into town around two o clock every day.
  • Seeing the same sad townies who go out every thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun night...get a life !!
  • PUB
  • THE NIGHTCLUBS AND OUR TAKEAWAYS THERE THE BEST U SHOULD TRY THEM SOMETIME!!!!!!!
  • the skate spots and girls oohyea
  • the sheer hilarity of how shit the police raids for underage drinking are.
  • the best thing is dickheads that say abbey park is shit, coz i thank god that they wont want to move onto the estate.Abbey Park gets such a bad reputation but its not like that, obviously we have a few idiots as i am sure most people have idiots living near them. I have lived up here all my life and have not got a problem with the estate i work and have a nice home and the small community works well together
  • the tube nightclub
  • The zoo bar. underage drinking a go go and hard rockin a plenty. it smells, its dirty and its adjacent to the crappy tram shed (twocer ridden hole) but its lurvely
  • er, I guess it's home!
  • quality street made in OUR nestle and nothing else at all is good
  • illingworth isnt that bad its just a reputation that's stuck. its just a hand full of people making it seem bad for all of us.
  • Nothing at all
  • night life
  • Leavin Halifax to go to IBIZA
  • the big hills HX train station - easy escape to leeds/ manch
  • The delightful mix of nutters out on a sat night! The Gibbet, they should have kept it going.
  • The pubs, the people, the scenic views around york's and not to mention the trees! have you ever seen so many trees as there is in Halifax.
  • ratio of pubs to people
  • Walking round town at 3am in the morning - absolutely silent... its crazy!
  • Nearness to both the countryside and the fleshpots of Leeds and Manchester.
  • the number of pubs ideal for a night out on the piss
  • its eighties charm
  • Halifax is a very upfront town in typical West Yorkshire tradition.
  • not a lot going for it except a good place to get drunk anf an easy lay
  • best night life in west yorkshire and the slappers
  • The best thing about Halifax is that it is both a Town and a rural community. You can be in the countryside within 5 minutes from Halifax town centre. You can live on a farm, but still get an excellent night life. A rare mix of town and country, with the bennefits of both.
  • Closeness to Leeds and Manchester
  • Just a nice little town. Nothing special, nothing exciting just generally fine.
  • The sexy women, who let it all hang out. Try Queensbury.
  • The surrounding countryside has to make for some of the best views in Yorkshire. Try Crow Hill Sowerby views in excess of 40 miles on a clear day. Beacon Hill, just outside of the centre (you can't miss it) for the best view of Halifax.
  • Good rugby league side (wrong code though).
  • Lots of good pubs - if you leave the town centre.
