The Worst Things in Market Harborough, Leicestershire*

The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Market Harborough.

• The most boring place in the world, Nothing to do there. If you are planning on visiting there then save yourself for goodness sake. I wouldn't die there. I reiterate please save yourself. Do Not Go To Market Harborough Under Any Circumstances Ever.
• I live IN A CUL DE SAC AND THE WORST THING IS S I LIVE IN A CUL DE SAC AND THERE IS A MAN THERE WHO HAS LIVED FOR 30 YEARS THERE A MAN THAT HAS LIVED THERE FOR THIRY YEARS AAND THINKS HE OWNS THE PLACE.
• The middled aged tosser who prowls round town at night in combat gear. He's either a rapist or missed his vocation in life by not joining the army.
• no emo lads
• Welland Park. In the winter it is ok, in that you can just walk through it. However, in the summer, when you may want to go and sit on the grass, watch the river, or - for the kids - play, it is overrun with gypsies and chavs. I have walked through there only a few times in my life, and had my spectactles stolen and been forced to beg to get them back. I haven't been back since. It would be a lovely park, if one didn't fear for one's life.
• I wish I had done it years ago as was working for a larger company and getting paid peanuts
• Every conversation in Harborough is about the price of things - "At Tesco's you can get three of them for 99p"..... on and on it goes.....
• The Square bar and its toilet! Welland Park School. The Satellite Club.
• all the Chavs
• The hypocritical council hiking council tax every year then making all the free parking, which bought in the visitors / shoppers, pay and display - shocking :(
• Everyone knows everyone.
• people in harb are snobs and have nothing better to do than talk about other peoples lives if your not from harb dont come here on a night out all you will get is funny looks all night
• theres nothing for the youngsters.

• theres nothing for the youngsters to do thats why they cause trouble!
• TOWNIES fucking hate them

• Gypos and Townies Lack of stuff to do They have just put in a Poundstrecher shop much to the entire towns disgust. How cheap!
• The fact that everyone I ever met from there seems to remember it fondly
• NOT ENOUGH PARKING SPACES
• Lots of antisocial egotistical people who think they are of a benefit to the world. Also mindless vandalism of war memorial, cemetries & remembrance gardens
• CONSERVATIVE HEGEMONY, LIBERAL HYPOCRITES and the absense of a strong Labour *Party representation. Don't worry though as soon as I graduate I'm coming home for a BATTLE. *The hardly spoken about drug problem. When the Council recognises this evil and doesn't just sweep it under the carpet it might get a little more respect from resident. *The North/South divide, the Harborough district is very good at keeping the wealthy residents happy, to the expense of the poorer ones I suspect. *Finally and perhaps the most pertinent. Harborough is a 'c'onservative town and its folks on the whole are very narrow minded and sometimes quite intolerant. This needs to change before the place where I was born can be called 'Home'
• For a town this big they have no 24 hour garages open.
• House prices are tooo high and the like of David wilson are only building massive 5+ bedrooms. Hell for 1st time buyers
• everything, man!
• The whole town is really shockingly bad don't bother coming here.
• The council.
• the library-absolutely useless
• Harborough Theatres productions.
• Townies on the square at night when the old folk hate walking down there being scared they might get mugged!!
• There is nothing to do and no where to go at nights for young people that are to young for the pubs.
• Very Conservative (yes in the political sense) and also orrientated very much towrds the older generations.
