The Worst Things in Weymouth, Dorset*
The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it
You can tell us more about Weymouth.
The Worst Things
- NOthing for teenagers to do, they spend their time hanging around street corners shouting abuse at the elderly. Not something that my children enjoy seeing. I don't feel it is safe to let my kids play outside in the street anymore just like I used to, I have to take them out with the whole family where I can always keep a close eye on them.
There deffinatly needs to be a lot more facilities for teenagers to use, to keep them off our streets!
- Women who want to appear "hard", bleached/dyed hair, chavvy clothes, typical Weymouth. I left as soon as I could
- The place; everyone has a sodding great chip on their shoulder. Full of chavy, spunging, theiving, aggrassive, alcoholic, drug-taking thick as shit white trash fuckfaces. Not the place for people with ambition (unless you want to be involved in the Olympics). Girls that have rock-bottom self-esteem that tolerate physically abusive relationships that wouldn't know a decent guy if he came up and bit them. Total absense of nice, sincere, feminine girls. Binge-drinking, coarse-voiced, loud-mouthed, vulgare ladettes on holiday. Rough and tough, unfriendly place full of ignorant, racist, uncouth, xenophobic, insular cretins that never travel beyond dorset. Everybody looks like a brain-dead zombie. The majority of decent, normal people tend to out-migrate in their late teens/early twenties leaving behind mostly the rubbish just mentioned. Don't mean to sound negative, that's the way it is I'm afraid.
- Full of absolute weirdos.
- Not many really good places to skate, only half decent.
- THE FUCKING WETHER
- the huge gangs of youths drinking, swearing, and trouble making that the police and residents blame on the homeless and rough sleepers.
- Grockels, not all of them just the ones that like to bad mouth weymouth and portland because they probably felt insulted by some bad mouthed little chav which u find in every town in England. The Narrow minded folk who feel that they are much better than all other people.
- NO WIZZWHEELS!
- The town has become realy tacky
- Chav kids on the sea front being abusive after drinking cider!
- Harry's Nightclub!!!!
- rupert young.
- weymouth pavillion - put this up on google to get info on this years panto and the first up shows an advert for Dick Whittington that played last year. Very poor.
- probably parking and THATS it!!
- Grockles - They complain that we don't like them, when really we should kiss their boots for coming here on holiday. If they just got on with their holiday instead of acting like they had more right to be here than the rest of us, we might not hold them in such distain!
- HARRYS, ITS BEEN SAID ALREADY, SO LISTEN UP DONT GO THERE, UNLESS U WANT A FIGHT OR FANCY SITTING IN SICK!!!
- the pikes who invade the area during summer.
- the little space allowed for dogs from may 1st till september 30th. ii understand the need to keep the beach free from doggy doo, but having about 25 yards of doggy area in the town is tight to say the least.
- boy racers in their clapped out novas and rover metro's pickin up the yr11's after school.
- 1,GROCKLES IN THE SUMMER
2,ITS THE END OF THE TRIANLINE(THE SGAG HEADS WAKE UP ERE WHEN THE TRIAN STOPS)
3,FRAGGLERS(PORTLANDERS)
4,BOYRACERS IN THEIR CRAP CARS PICKIN UP THE YR11's FROM BUDMOUTH AFTER SCHOOL(THEY MUST BE GETTIN DESPERATE).
5,BUSDRIVERS
6,TOWNIES
7,THE OLD BIDDIES WHO THINK THEY OWN EVERYTHING!!!!
8,THE BLOODY EXTORSHINET PRICES OF THE CINEMA
- Too many smelly tramps, dont give them a penny. I live in Weymouth, they should piss off back to Brighton. Always hanging around the Post Office in town looking for "spare change". Tescos next door, ready to buy that bottle of Mega White Lighting ( with the 50% free)
- All the clubs, getting your head kicked in on saturday night outside scoffers, the large collection of local 'hardnuts' you dont want to look at. Barry Nutcluster springs to mind. The large number ot drunken 10 year olds outside mcdonalds hurling abuse at nayone who walks past.. God I miss that place!

- hAVING TO LEAVE THIS LOVELY TOWN THAT NONE OF YOU DESERVE TO LIVE IN BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW HOW LUCKY YOU ARE!!!!!
- Love it to much to slag it off although the council and the Dorset evening Echo could do with being scrapped!
- frickin tourists!!! i know we get all our money frm them but there are to many of them and they push u out the way and think they own the place grrrrrrrrr i h8 them all!!!!!!!!
- severe lack of decent females.
- Weymouth + Portland Borough Councils refusal to reinstate the Weyboard. The forum where local people could voice their opinions on matters relating to the Councils mishandling of finances and other discrepancies. And councillors total disregard of questions asked of them. ONE CONSOLATION IS THE LOCAL ELECTIONS ARE DUE ON THURSDAY 1st APRIL. I would think those up for re-election must be getting very worried.
- Idiots. My ex-girlfriend.
- Westham. Full of yobs.Everyone knows you. The pissheads they are everywhere.
- All the f***ing Northeners and city people who have nowhere else to go after eviction that come here that are polluting the place with their filthy poor white trash families and mannerisms.
SOD OFF BACK !
- Parking on the Esplanade is now pay and display and be warned traffic wardens patrol the area every 5-10 minutes!
- boy racers townies who fink its cool to own a fucked up metro with racing stripes and pull the ugliest creatures god has eva created
- Rubbish, dog mess and litter. The whole place is a tip other than the beach which is normally pristine, but just yards away the town centre is covered in dog mess and litter! And this gets worse and worse as you get further away from the town centre!
Disgraceful and needs sorting out!
- Portland
The spray that comes off the sea when you walk down the sea front in the Winter!
- Littlemoor, Westham and Chapelhay... you all know why.
- The sudden upsurge in Junkies
- The Kids outside the white heart
- If you're planning on taking a holiday in or around Weymouth, my advice is, if you've children, don't. The only sandy beach for miles around is is the one at Weymouth itself. The glossy tourist brochures don't tell you that the others are a mixture of shingle and a black, foul smelling, oily mud. Even the one at Weymouth, if the children want to build sandcastles, they can only dig down about a foot before they hit this disgusting clothes-staining gunge. If you must go to the beach, you'll find traffic in Weymouth town centre is horrendous and it's impossible to find a cheap place to park the car - standard car parking charges are about £1.00 per hour. They advise you to avoid the town centre by using the Park'n'Ride but to get to it, unbelievably, you have to drive through the town and when you get there, the cost of parking your car and using the specially designated bus service, works out almost as expensive as using the town centre.
- people who beat you up for no reason at all just oustide weymouth..in westham
- The sad losers who inhabit Weymouth. School leavers go to Weymouth College, then they get out and get a life. Thus, the people who are left behind consist of- "recovering" alcoholics, Care in the Community, school kids, OAPs and teenage mums. Sorry to be bleak. Oh, and aforementioned Meatheads who go out in packs of 4 and 5, wearing coloured untucked shirts, and beat each other up at weekends. There are definitely no "men", for those of you looking!! Also, Weymouth becomes Birmingham-On-Sea between June and late August. Be warned!!!
- The fashion sense is the worst I have ever seen - one woman in a pub , about 60 with bleached hair , short skirt , thigh-length boots , low top - they called her Ma or Mo - they're all about 30 years behind the times.
- coming back to see how much a place can change, whether it is for the better
- The old biddys who go mental in St Marys Street
- Traffic & parking.
- People who assume that if you don't speak with a Weymouth accent you are a grockle. I still have the Weymouth accent on some words I just happened to pick accents up from other places aswell!!!
- THE TRAFFIC IS TERRIBLE!!!!!
- The total lack of culture and any decent clubs
- Welcome to the Borough of Weymouth and the Royal Manor of Portland
- The Council -only interested in attracting tourists but makes it impossible to do anything once they're here and ignores the non-tourist businesses unless there's a grant or it's flavour of the month
- pissed up people
- The locals
- Stupid people who hate you for no reason
- Watch out for Lisa the she-man. Surely to be found in the dark depths of Harry's nightclub she is likely to slander your name and attempt to attack you with her manly hands. Previously known to have accused innocent people of serious crimes she should be well avoided, plus her breath smells rank from the number of blokes she has performed crap oral sex to round he back of Surf Side Diner!
- The locals, who are offhand to the point of rudeness, and who seem not to realise that the prosperity of their town depends on visitors - after all, there's sod-all else there.
The insane parking regulations, enforced with evangelical zealotry by some of the local Jobsworths, who seem bent on getting rid of all visitors.
- SMELLY CATTLE MARKET STYLE CLUBS LIKE HARRY'S AND MALIBU... GREAT IF YOU'RE GAGGING FOR IT , A PEDEFILE OR NECROPHILIAC (THEY ALL LOOK DEAD)
- boy racers and those sort of peole who have no life in general,
especially those townies
- grockals...(tourists)
- New Look shops they are everywhere and Grockles in the summer - this is my town go away!
- Relative obscurity, hardly anything of interest or note happens here.
Music scene is bloated by arrogant, self important pop/jazz/folk bands.
Everything is expensive as it is a holiday resort(prices actually increase in the holiday season).
- The Town Bridge always goes up on your way too work in the summer.
- Eventually everyone will know you and have slept with your friends or your ex.
- Traffic. Do not bring a car into Weymouth. Park free at Upwey station, and catch the train, or park at Lodmoor, Radipole Park Drive or Chapel Hay, avoiding the town cenrte at all costs.
Rainy days. Not a lot to do. Try Condor to the Cannel Islands, or Brewer's Quay down by the old harbour. Rainy days are rare.
- Tourists, Litter
- May I just say the traffic however is as bad as ever. where there used to be 2 lanes along the esplanade there is now only one. The other lane is now a bus lane. If you want to get around in weymouth take the bus. If you are willing to pay there prices that is!!
- Too many amusement arcades and tacky gift shops.
- Tacky seaside town.
- Beach gets too full in summer.
- The Mariner "Pub" Sometimes a little too laid-back
