The Worst Things in Salisbury, Wiltshire*

The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Salisbury.

The Worst Things

• The drunks. Always breaking things and making the City centre smell of p1ss.
• The roads in Salisbury and then all the carrot munchers
• Narrow streets
• smallsbury - people with very small minds
• Not enough teenage boys! There are lots of ruff kids who always try and pick fights for no reason. Once youve been to Salisbury once it gets boring because there isnt alot to do!!! People from the ruffer areas like bemerton heath and the friery walk around like they own the place and they fight and steal all the time so its sensable to walk in groups at night and dont stare or look at them!!!
• townies !!!! CAUTION: ONLY LOOK ONCE!!OR SUFFER THE CONCIQENCES!! XX
• I have now lived here for 6 years, I`m aged 40, its like waiting to die! Beutiful place, but nothing is going on anywhere in the town (I know its a city, but its more like village) Every body we have met (who actually bothers to speak to, locals don`t speak to each other much either) wants to live a more interesting life and do things, like going places, going out or eating in, but they can`t be bothered. Of the people we meet they are either outsiders or have lived away for some time then came back, one them described Salisbury people as "all being constipated, they want to do something but don`t know what" i could n`t have put it better myself! When our son finishes senior school we`re off to the coast where people are sociable, probably in Devon. Salisbury, just visit for your own sake don`t stay!!

• Traffic getting into town
• Full of cradle-snatching adoption loving social workers who love to split families up just because they ghave learning difficulties. See www.learningdisabilities.org.uk , www.supported-parenting.com , or read PARENTS WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES, CHILD PROTECTION AND THE COURTS for more shocking proof of what's going on!
• the hoity, toity soulless rich bastards that dominate the town and surrounding villages. Most of 'em are blow ins from God knows where but it would be hard to find a bunch of more boring, acquisitive materialistic bastards gathered together in one place on the face of this earth. Yes, Salisbury is a pretty town but unfortunately a large percentage of it's pop. are purely unbearable- as Bob Baker said so rightly of the local pop. 25 years ago- the place would be alright if you could ship 80% of the pop. out to Siberia or some place as unbearale and nasty as they are.
• too many alternative people. not enough townies.
• Takeaways everywhere, restaurants everywhere. Surely no-one in town owns their own cooker.
• I've never seen a car wearing a bomber jacket ...
• Salisbury is still a great place to live but it is being destroyed by the "Parking Ambassadors" better known as "Parking Highwaymen" and their little cohorts "The hidden black parking meters" all intended to "help the traffic flow". The real intention is to bleed the motorist dry and fill the council coffers so they can - employ more Highwaymen and black meters - so it all eventually grinds to a halt and we get no visitors or tourists and the City dies.

• Parking meters, parking chargers are day light robbery here. every corner on every street has a chinky on it.
• The traffic is getting worse day by day. First Park and Ride site to the north is very good - only a £1 to park all day.
• not much for young people, but its got much better over last 3 or 4 yrs.
• That councellors view on the homeless
• Gippos and squaddies.
• £30 on the spot fines for skatin'
• Too many Townies (people who go round in cars that play loud drum and bass and wear stupid bomber jackets)
• The abusive children. Moany pedestrians, too much trouble along the Town Path.
• Our council.
• Way, way too cliquish. Why does everyone feel that 'If you aint a lifelong resident, then you got no right to be in their city'??? Losers
• Picking up the horse dung (from the carriage rides)
• Winter.
• We have all big shop names e.t.c but there isn't much to do.i.e our swimming pool has just been closed down by the department of health
• Weather Motorists Wilts and Dorset Bus company (bring back Badger Line!)
• too many townies, not enough goths, metallers or punks
• Vandalism Westwood St Thomas School Not enough things for the younger generation All those awful supermarkets we don't need
• The rea is deviod of any real top classs sport.
• Traffic. Dont go near the place on a Saturday.
• loads of security guards
• Those roundabouts.
• The traffic system the town council decided would be a good idea. The amount of money the council uses on silly things like spelling SALISBURY out in flowers on a bank neara road!
• It's bloody cliquey - I moved there at 16yrs, left at 25yrs, and can honestly say that I only made two or three really close friends in that time - everyone else considered me to be an outsider.
