Because I’m a halfwit, I scheduled this a week later than I intended. Lackaday.

So much choice, so few words and so little time.
Places beginning with G
Gillingham
The one in Dorset (pronounced with a hard initial G) is OK, or so I’m led to believe. The one in Kent (pronounced with a soft initial G) is twinned with Mordor
Glasgow
No comment needed
Godalming
What you say when you arrive there for the first time. And every subsequent time
Gravesend
An early one would be a blessed relief from this hovel of a place. It’s on the Thames estuary, about opposite Tilbury (qv). Like so many awful places, it has a whopping big powerstation. Unlike Ferrybridge though, it also has miles and miles of mudflats of no charm whatsoever
Grays
Twinned with Gillingham, but even Sauron won’t live there
Grimsby
The name says it all
Guildford
I have no idea why this place exists, or why people live there
Good to see that Guilford is there, used to commute there for my work and was always happy to get the 1st train home ASAP 🙂
Oh, so you CAN tell me what is so awful about it? Just read the Wikipedia page and the architecture did not seem as boring as in other places, they have some cultural events there and seem to have a lot of green in their town, which ranks highly in the things which are good for citizens. But I have never been there and Wikipedia pages are misleading.
Wikipedia misleading? Never say it
😉 – You see, I don’t mind you declaring cities to be ininhabitable – I live in a region of Germany where it is true for 7 months of the year (the norther German plaines are ininhabitable for 7 months of the year – and the rest is a rainy kind of winter). I am just wondering what causes your verdict.
Bias. 😉
Prejudice has a source, too – often enough it is experience.
I don’t blame you…
