  • Took a visit to looe recently and the name loo certainly applies.A large portion of chips was two handfuls at £1.70 and a can of coke 75p what a rip off and was too skint and scared of the bill if i went into any other shops as its all very overpriced.Day one a jet wash for the car cost £1 a token day two because the tourist season started it went up to £1.25 a token just because the holiday season had started and with all the bird crap flying all over the place a daily car wash is a must. The locals can only be described as rude arrogant small minded inbreds that should get out and see more of the real world rather than sit at home watching birds shit on the cars. The majority of men all spoke like small time crooks who would have no problem in stealing your last pound without any embarresment and then stab you in the back. All in all looe is a very beautiful part of Britain but the people definately lack any social skills to anyone remotely from 5 miles outside their area.I discovered their favourite saying was GET OFF MY LAND which i thought only was said in comedy shows on television.The only decent people i came across were the few outsiders that had moved to looe and came from what i once considered the armpit of Britain the (major cities and towns) the only normal people in the area that had actually lived a life and knew how to be sociable.Looe is nice to drive through but the people are conmen at best and inbred at worse no wonder they want to be known as kernow and not part of Britain and by the way they act parliment should cut them right off from the civilised world and leave them in their pitholes.
  • SO WE'VE BEEN TOLD...WINTER.
  • The police sitting in their car watching a fight outside the kebabians and then only getting out to arrest the person on the floor bleeding lol. Keep up the good work lads
  • Boscarn discotheque!
  • Shitehawks!
  • SEAGULLS SHITTING ON ME TWO YEARS RUNNING. WHY DO MINGERS FEED THEM?
  • Ken at the Jolly!
  • BLOODY SEAGULLS SHITTING ON ME.
  • Having to come home after the annual two week holiday.
  • Realising you are not a tourist and you get frustrated trying to get along the pavement only to be shoved on the road by the slow "real" tourists.
  • Dog mess on the second beach and lack of parking in the town.But then it's not too much of a walk!.
  • the animals
  • The winters, when not even the tourists are there to act as a buffer between you and the locals.
  • The winters when there is no buffer zone between members of the human race who just happen to be unfortunate enough to be living there and the locals.
  • Looe - try Polperro
  • The depths of winter - so depressing!
  • The Wind !
  • Smell of Fish from the fish Market.
