The Best Things
  • the train station or leaving
  • the train stations and king ferry coach so when the match fininsh i can get the hell out of here i ve been southampton and but ive also been to scunthorpe
  • evry 1 in this town are genourally freindly and courtious until u upset them and then they smash ur teeth out fuckin stab u in the throaght with a broken bottle this applies to riddings areas only the rest are pleasent and peacful suburb areas with exellent counsil caterd housin estates
  • The refurbishment of the old church on brit corner about time it was done pity its another crap pub tho
  • The people are mostly nice, and unpretentious. I was daydreaming once and nearly walked into someone, and she said sorry! It is also a good place to grow up, since almost wherever you move will be a much better place. The bus service to Hull isnt bad. There are some great cheap stores like B&M and T J Hughes.
  • All the ace people I know
  • nice suburbs!
  • the people actually talk to you like you too were a human being, unusual today and so refreshing
  • the ashby crew
  • easy to score weed pretty laid back place few too many scagheads
  • NORTH LINDSEY COLLEGE
  • BATHS HALL***************Dont shut it down !
  • The continued good designing of Central Park, the planting up of the main roundabouts and the addition of many hanging baskets have improved the overall look of Scunthorpe. Many thanks!
  • The sky if it's Sunny...Coz if u stare at it for long enough...you can actually fool yourself into believing you're somewhere else.
  • Is weed legal, it seems to be in Scunny. Free the weed!
  • The Barge Inn at Keadby
  • The best thing about coming from Scunthorpe is that every single place you go for the rest of life seems absolutely breathtakingly brilliant compared to where you came from. Imagine actually being from somehere nice- you would always think other places were shit! Being from Scunthorpe is a blessing in disguise!
  • The council is cool and it does a great free magazine
  • Central Park - But the council should use it to put on outdoor concerts & events
  • road out
  • every one knows sum1 u no. and in some way every1 is connected.
  • hot all year round, never rains
  • THE NEW TOWN BIT IS OK BUT THE SHOPS THERE R STILL PRETTY SHIT
  • nowt lol no theres some real strange shit happening in scunny not saying am apart of any of the vilance and fun crimanal damage urm.....
  • church square its a really cool place
  • central park, hypnotize at baths,
  • lots of good skaters that are friendly
  • brumby school it so good well part from a person getting kicked out because of his hair
  • the football team!(we rule!), the local music scene. thats about it.
  • church square
  • The road out of it, 3 days there is like torture. If i ever had to go back to live i think i would go insane.
  • PULSE AND COCKTAILS FRIENDLY ATMOSPHERE.(SEXY MANAGER)
  • scunthorpe isn't as bad as people make out. i live in rotherham which i think is probably much larger than scunthorpe but being so close to sheffield, meadowhall and other towns we get dominated by these other areas and have no decent shops. at least being a little more remote means scunthorpe has more decent shops of its own.
  • If you don't pull at blarney 20 sheets will get you a shag in a dodgy frod road flat. Mind you don't step on the junkies on your way in.
  • Britannia corner 4 all the cheap prostitutes about a tenner a blow
  • There aint any.
  • THE ROADS OUT
  • THERE ARE NO GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS TOWN
  • Atmosphere, donny road, chucking out time.
  • the high street is pretty quiet on a weekday afternoon. that's because we all have jobs to go to unlike a coastal town not far away from us. stick around and you'll have some good times - we don't shun you because you're from a particular place.
  • When I moved to Oxford! Scunthorpe is a SHITHOLE. NO JOBS, NO NIGHTLIFE, NO IDEA and NO POINT! BLOW IT UP!
  • Leaving the town for fresh air
  • the lack of law and order the outrageous drinking not the birds the priory burger king
  • Friendly folk,
