[quote=The Rodent]This is why I'm glad my kids live out of this place.
If they still lived here, do you think my Daughter would have the chance to play professional Football?
No way. Our local team doesn't have a youth program.

There's nothing, and I mean [I]nothing[/I], for kids in this place.
No youth groups, no prospects for upcoming, intelligent and talented kids...

Nothing.

At all.[/quote]

[quote=The Rodent]You know my town is the only one in Britain that doesn't have a designated Lottery kiosk?
It had one for a little bit, but the Lotto closed it.

This town is also the only one in which B&Q doesn't have a woodcutting service.
Every single B&Q has woodcutting... ours doesn't.[/quote]

[quote=The Sci-Fi Slob]Much like the country, the NHS is f!cked. I can't even get a doctors appointment now. I wish I was born in eastern Europe.[/quote]

[quote=The Rodent]I just checked it was still open is all.

Reason being, is this town has a tendency to shut things like that and never open them again.[/quote]

[quote=jrs][quote=The Rodent]

Been on Facebook to some friends who say it's still open.[/quote]

Did it close?[/quote]

[quote=The Rodent]I'm going to the walk-in tomorrow.

[quote=The Rodent][quote=christine][quote=The Rodent]That's the NHS dear :D

My medical practice also only offers visits with an actual Doctor after they give you a call back from an under qualified nurse.

But, so far it's taken me near 12 weeks and I still haven't managed to get a call back or appointment or anything.[/quote]

You have a walk in centre in your town tho don't you? I'm not being funny like but you don't seem to be taking blackouts seriously. The NHS isn't as bad as you're making out A&E to be. A walk in centre can refer you to hospital , I already said that.[/quote]

TBH, I've just had to Google it. It's in the town centre.
I had no idea we had one.[/quote]

[quote=foster]One murder a year lol. I guess thats bad if it's a small town. I am used to Baltimore we get a murder almost every day.[/quote]

[quote=The Rodent]Talking about how rough it is around here.

Just been in the news that another person in my town has been attacked.

Attacked on Friday night outside a nightclub with a blade... for absolutely no reason at all.
They've cut all his face and head up.

Cops have no idea who the attacker is.

We've had at least one murder a year in this town as well since the late 1990s.
The last murder was a couple months back, old lady attacked in her home and beaten to death.
The killer, was doing it for drug money... he killed her so he could rob £10 off her.

£10.[/quote]
