Brum vs London

born and raised in Brum ( over 40 years ) and for sure there are some real $hithouse areas, like all big cities, really glad i got out and wish i had done it years before i did, but i think i would rather live in Brum than the Smoke.

balsall heath wasn't v.nice. nor was the area round the rover factory

YOU COULDN'T HANDLE THE SMOKE FFS
OR MY CAPS LOCK

Longbridge ? .. not nice no but that's nothing

Balsall heath is rough though yeah but there's much worse

bito .. silver spoons imo

agree though savo yep .. i'd still rather live in brum as the people are still more friendly (on the whole) !

Rough - Castle Vale, Chembo Wood, Wyrely Birch, Aston, Handsworth, Lozells, Alum Rock, balsall Heath, Frankley, Northfield.... plus plenty more

walked into a pub round longbridge. everyone looked at me. everyone looked at me like i was a piece of sh.t. carried on walking to the door on the opposite end of the pub and left.

only time i've ever done that.

Aston, Handsworth, Lozells, Alum Rock, balsall Heath , Northfield....

the old Castle Vale .. yep .. depressing mate

I'd add Small heath , Nechells ! deffo

positively4thsteet i reckon you'd get that in most 'area pubs'

though you wouldn't even walk into some :(

must have been the Leather trousers ;)

i've wandered into hundreds of area pubs in my time. they know you're an outsider right away, sooner or later someone will ask what you're doing there or if you're a coppper etc. i've never felt so intimidated that i just fekked right off before.

I have a few mates that work at Rover actually p4thst .. that's their local

even they don't like it !

worked and bee asaulted to some degree in all those areas of brum hAndsworth villa rd the worst nothing even close but school playground compared to London

was you at a footie match ?

no a betting shop

London is on another level, every honest thug I've met from Brum and anywhere else will admit that.
