Most Violent Somerset Town?

[butchersapron]

Yeovil is in South Somerset

Yep, not proper somerset. South Somerset is the one with about 2000 people living there.

 

[keybored]

Peasedown's got a bit of a rep.

 

[High Voltage]

W-s-M is virtually a Spa Town . . . the only trouble there is from outsiders.

 

[marty21]

midsomer norton used to have a rep, i think it's got posher lately

 

[mattie]

twerton

yep, Twerton

Central Weston-super-Mare generates the largest proportion of violent offences for the North Somerset district and 58% of these incidents in the town are concentrated within five identified areas: Richmond Street, Beach Road, Regent Street, Alexandra Parade and St James Street.

People from Twerton on holiday.

They're all utterly shite.

 

[butchersapron]

...and? Did we ask how good they were?

Sorry by shite I mean. Violent provincial non enterties of places. Areas where peple are born by ill fate and flee as soon as they're able.

Britains full of them.

When I was growing up on the coast of South Wales, within sight of Weston over the channel, it was a popular sport among the local youth to nip over to Weston on the Waverly, spend the day kicking crap out of the English poofs, and be home in time for "Points West."

Me and belushi was talking about the sunday dry ferry a few months back. Sounds madness now.

What as in "no booze?" I don't remember any dry ferry, it was always a great piss-up on the Waverly. We used to wonder at the luxury of Weston's pier in comparison to Penarth's. Mind you, Ilfracombe was my favorite destination.

There's something in it though. the type of small town violence that is distinct from say, city violence. Big fish, small pond and all that.

The ferry weren't dry, the sunday was. The Waverley/Waverleigh is doing north wales now i think. My local when in weston is the Waverleigh with that spelling.

The Ilfracombe ferry is still going, one hour turnaround, back around midnight, probably 11 your side. Great day out.

I assume its near the sea-front then? We could probably wave to each other from our respective beer gardens.

11 on my side? Have they introduced a time difference now? But yes, my brother took the trip to Ilfracombe last summer and had a blast. They stopped at Flatholm on the way too.

 

[butchersapron]

We own that. It's ours.

 

[marty21]

it's a pity corsham is not in somerset, coulda been a contender, roughest club in the west when i was a teen

 

[cyberfairy]

Peasedown's got a bit of a rep.

Used to live there-in the pub, everyone took speed and drank. All day.

 

[Idaho]

Ah... Last thing on a friday. Been looking at a screen for 40 hours and can't read

 

[ddraig]

We own that. It's ours.

fucking imperialists

Twerton isn't rough, went there every other weekend for years and it's tame as anything. OK so people from Bath think it's rough but that says more about them than anything.

it's rough compared to fairfield park

 

[panpete]

Always makes me chuckle when people say "froam" instead of "froom".

Well they should spell it "Froom", I find it hard not to say frome.
I've been there a couple of times, and it seems nice, but living there may be a different matter.

 

[stavros]

I've lived in Taunton since August and haven't noticed any real violence as yet, save the odd broken glass bottle on the ground. Bridgwater seems to have the worst reputation from what I've heard.

 

[butchersapron]

Get up to weston cunt.

 

[Funky_monks]

My wife is from Weston, as it goes, and we nearly got married there, unfortunatley (or not) her dad put his foot down and we got married in Glastonbury instead.

 

[butchersapron]

Your wife is lovely. Glastonbury is a poor second.

 

[Isambard]

See a bloke got beaten up after speaking to some lads busting the ticket machine at Worle station last week.

Was out of order.

But fuck me, who gets wound up about First Great Western losing some money?
