  • No skate park in Teignmouth after so many years of campaigning, fund raisng, etc.
  • Nasty, Nasty Holiday Makers. Euch.
  • Townie twats everywhere, packed in summer, overcrowded pubs most weekends
  • Schools!
  • I COME FROM TEIGNMOUTH AND I SKATE AND ALL THE OLD BIDDIES TELL US TO STOP THE MISEREBLE OLD GITS
  • Pickwick, lack of Big Issue venders and the rising amount of old people's homes which appear to be multiplying at one alarming rate! (along with the oap's)
  • Not Getting To Shag Layla Jade... Boo... Hiss... etc... :-(
  • -seafront in summer coz the old grannys complain and in winter cars are all along the street -cinima is closed -teignmouth community collage
  • TEIGNMOUTH COMMUNITY COLLAGE TOO MANY POLICE ABOUT TOO MANY OLD PEOPLE
  • Someone 'please' do something to the old Carlton Cinema ( restore it ?)
  • lack of close public toilets when you are in the town centre!!!!!
  • The whole conservatism of the area. The old don't understand the young and vice versa. If your young you will be labled a 'thug' or a 'hooligan' even if you've got a degree from Oxbridge, people just never take the time find out about you. The local council take the biscuit, they rant on about skaters but never see them as just another group with legitimate concerns and needs. Unless you're retired you wont exist. But don't worry this will change...
  • THE FACT THAT TEIGNMOUTH IS "GODS WAITING ROOM"
  • I agree, not very nice for cottaging.
  • The skanky toilets at Teignmouth Community College
  • In winter the town is very quiet, and wet. There isn't much to do and the whole town is just waiting for summer again, and for the carnivals, regattas, fetes etc. It is almost impossible to find a job in winter, but everybody want;s you in summer. The wages are pretty crap and there aren't many top jobs in this area (infact there are none)
  • People who can't walk straight. aka Tourists and OAPs Seagulls. aka shitehawks. Parking, or lack of it. The residents who never quite manage to leave after leaving school and start working in every shop in the town.
  • Sporadic thuggery of bored youths, often from nearby Newton Abbot. Lack of decent eateries. Bloomin tourists from Brum. Shaldon snobs. Bad schools. Too many Man U fans.
