Thats like saying you wont goto Fencehouses, but you will happily come to Murton

I don't mind Durham. The area around the bus station is a bit manky and could leave a nasty first impression, but if you venture elsewhere, then it's really quite nice.

If you's want to see a real shithole jump on the 5/5A and look at Eldon and if you're on the 5A Jubilee Estate in Shildon is pretty rough too.

Isn't Blyth highly regarded as a shithole.

I think Wheatley Hill and Thornley are at the top of my list of rough places. Port Clarence isn't exactly nice either - nearly got bitten of a dog once there.

You have had a lucky escape - turns left or right (depending in which direction you went in), at the bottom of Easington Lane

Not explored Sunderland.

The 22 does go through some rough holes, I much preferred the 24 route when it to Sunderland and I often used to get an ALX400 Double decker where as the 22 is solid Pulsar.

Was tempted to say something about the locals in Port Clarence, but better not.
Too the wrong slip road off the M8 once - Govan and Ibrox aren't the most scenic of places. Beat a quick uturn!

Yup.

In late 2003 I was employed as a supervisor to a team of leaflet distributors (some of whom were pretty rough). I sometimes had to assist with leafleting and did so in Port Clarence. So here I was, traversing the streets and I came across a pack of dogs. None of them seemed participially aggressive, so I continued past them. One of the dogs strolled up to me, sniffed me, then proceeded to have a go at my kneecap in the most casual, non-aggressive manner possible. I whacked the dog across the nose with a bottle of pop and it casually strolled away.

We still have a bit of slush and ice from when it snowed last week, which was quite awful when I was trying to walk to School Aycliffe for a shot of the Primo on the 17 and some of the paths were like ice skating, although it didn't help that I left the house late and then had to go the bloddy long way round because the bridge appeared to be broken. And after all that rushing it turned up late.

Think I'm in the wrong thread...
