Ive just been reading a guide to the 50 Most Crap Places in Britain. Number 1 is Hull, Liverpool came in at 6. I thought it would make for a great tour of the UK to travel around the top 10 or 20, but it also got me thinking - what are the 10 crapest places in New Zealand.
So here goes, Ive only included places Ive been to and spent time in rather than places I just passed through
10. Wanganui (Shit hole, who would live in this god awful dump? The mayor is Michael Laws...)
9. Timaru (this was a close call with Greymouth, but even that has something to do - Timaru is the Hamilton of the south).
8. Invercargill (The best bit of Invercargill is the air bridge at the airport - they dont need it as only small planes go there!! Obviously such hope for the future? Cold wet and poos).
7. Masterton (not even its close proximity to Greytown and Martinborough can save it - smells like cabbage, ugly rural people).
6. Levin (to be fair if anyone else was making the list - it would be lower. It is kind of getting better - but its all relative. What the fuck is that statue of a chinese market gardner? Would anyone notice if they just didnt bother and closed for a few weeks?).
5. Whangarei (always fucking raining - apalling mess of a town filled with yokels)
4. Palmerston North (Just try to find something to do - only the windmills keep it from a lower ranking - used to have nice tree lined avenues....... they chopped those down).
3. Christchurch (why? why does it exist? Wellington has government depts and quangos, Auckland has business..... Christchurch has...........?)
2. Whakatane (absolute low point of 2005 was a whole day in this shit hole, made worse by the airport being a glorified skyline garage. You spend all your time willing White Island to erupt and end the pain.)
1. Hamilton (just try navigating this bollocks - it feels like its the size of Western Australia and there is litterally nothing there that you couldnt do elsewhere the epitome of the shit hole. A huge complex network of nothingness ).
Close - Auckland (proving that a million people can be wrong), Gisborne (as depressing as Whangarei), Hutt Valley (the lighthouse and Dowse save it), Stratford (Levin of the West), Foxton (the "fox-town of NZ"... if thats the best you've got...) .
Others that I just know are shit - but I havent been there or have just passed through; Gore, Dargaville, Te Awamutu, and Kaitaia.

Hamiltron definitely gets my vote. 15 minutes to pass from one side to the other, and that's with no traffic on the road! Oh, the pain!
Mamoth cross town freeways to no where.
