Stoi Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Nowt much to worry about so far: Paisley Area: New supermarket next to Abbey Mill Reason: This town looks like someone has dropped it versus Greenock Area: by old tescos Reason: It's just one bad building too many. The town centre of Greenock was managing to keep its head above some truly baws-ugly buildings. You can't really go too far wrong with a town that has views across the Clyde to one side and hills to the other. But the planning by the waterfront is just f***ing disasterous, an aglomoreration of nasty architecture shrouding the Victorian town hall and this tesco which puts a car park between the old town and the water. B*****ds! Port Glasgow Area: All of it Reason: In Glasgow they are at least making efforts to deal with the passing of the industrial period. In Port Glasgow they are just standing on the shore and shrugging their shoulders. "There is nothing in art or culture that is worth the life and elementary happiness of one of those thousand who rot in the Glasgow slums," wrote Lewis Grassic Gibbons. Whilst the current state of a town like Port Glasgow or Greenock nearby doesn't produce the same depth of feeling, it makes me feel sick in the stomach everytime I see the latest piece of nonsense about Scotland being a creative, forward thinking country If the new Morrisons is the worst thing about Paisley then i think i could live with that, but then im not from Paisley so maybe shouldnt comment!

Stu Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Some stiff competition there in the form of Edinburgh and Dalkeith, the latter in particular being a total dump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 (edited) Lewis Grassic Gibbon once said that "there's nae sae fine folk as them that bide by Don and Dee". Which is, of course, utter bollocks. Any form of clothing that bears such a thing as a colour is greatly frowned upon in Sheep City. Heart$parky was right about the place being "chromatically challenged". Edited October 5, 2005 by Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
