Preston is horrible.
Discussion
Especially that Preston! (😜)
i liked the canals, but i only saw them at 4am in the morning one time while i was suddenly homeless on the way to ... well i didn't know where, but i ended up in liverpool anyhow
Sounds like you’ve had an interesting life. I’ve been about too. It enriches.
yeah, i can't say the adventure hurt me
what hurt me was seed oils and modified starch and potatoes
Potatoes should be ok no? But the rest definitely. Anything “refined”. That includes drugs and alcohol.
no, potatoes too
except for people with dozens of amylase genes it is a recipe for death at age 50-60 of heart disease, obesity and/or diabetes/kidney failure
sure, these other things make it worse but sugar is the base poison, and the most normalised
I’m currently in Poole. Got bored so heading back to London.
Now Poole is Coole 😎
Parts are cool. Sandbanks etc. But my experience has been unexciting so far. Many retirees and if you’re into sailing it’s good. Not cheap either. Quite a lot of military here and also a traveller element (nothing against this) but it seems to trigger the locals. Rather similar to Bristol. Best place I’ve lived so far in the UK (ignoring London - I love London for the variety and sub culture - not the expense) has been West Wales (Aberystwyth et al) and also Dundee/St Andrews. Have always had a soft spot for Surrey too. (Epsom, Ascot, Virgina Waters, Windsor, Egham etc.). The UK really does have variety if you explore.
Yep, there are many good and many not so good places
yeah, wales seems like the best parts to me also, the people are sweet also, had lots of nice interactions during a stint as a hire car phone operator/order/helpbesk in Sofia, only nicer people i worked with were texans
Definitely - very friendly in Wales
the worst customers were pakistanis in london
I almost feel I shouldn’t comment but…
hey, i was just some random australian working at a helpdesk in sofia after running out of money cos i failed to make a profit on my darkweb business
don't shoot the messenger, the pakis were horrid, and i never got a good impression of the ones i bumped into in sydney either, though the lebanese were worse, except for the last time i was there in 2001, they were chaperoning this coked up white girl who demanded that her thug bois beat me up while on the train out of the city back towards canberra
so yeah, my experience of middle eastern people migrants to australia, was not good, most of them were aggressive bitches and very unpleasant
Hahaha I know exactly what you mean…
yeah i'm pretty sure that anyone who has lived in london has bumped into pakistanis, there's so many of them there and they are so rude
i'd rather tangle with turks any day, they are nice, just don't trust them
was many turks in the low sec prison i spent 4 months in after getting busted for my darkweb biz, they were ok but not friendly, you could at least depend on them to be honest in their business, and later times i have been in Istanbul and several contacts i had with locals were pleasant
Funny you mention Texans. My father worked with many Texans - (Oil/Libya before it became a complete mess) - and he also said the same. Decent peeps!
