Is Grimsby such a bad place to be?

[lambrini_socialist]

there is enough frozen food stored in Grimsby to feed all of the EU for 3 months, apparently.

that's assuming our European chums are happy to eat Findus Crispy Pancakes, Ross Young's fish fingers (most of which have been on the floor at some point during their manufacturing process) and Tesco Value pizzas.

getting flashbacks to my student summer jobs now.

i was brought up in Grimsby. they're simple folk, with simple values and close-together eyes. most of you lot would fit right in.

What's that fish factory called: pywipe or somat. Down the docks, back in the day, there were rats the size of small dogs, (one must remember that small dogs are smaller today.)

Spent some time in Burnley, that was grim, not a patch on Cumbernauld though.

My Dad worked there in the 60s. Grim Grimsby was how he and his colleagues described it. Arsehole of the Universe was another epithet.

Its f$cking freezing here in London. Call me a southern wuss, but I'd freeze my b*ll*cks off in Grimsby.

Southern wuss

Our fishmonger delivers to our door and comes from Grimsby. Jolly nice chap too.

Grimsby's nothing special, but it's not in the same league as Southern tulipholes like Reading, Basingstoke, Croydon etc

Not forgetting High Wycombe and Slough. Eurghh.

That's to deter superficial southerners!

Nope I'm from Manchester. Steels is a good fish restaurant up the road in Cleethorpes. Not really an area I recommnd to be quite honest though.

It isn't called GRIMsby for nothing!

Cheap place to live. Next to the sea. Close to wide open spaces (Lincolnshire).
