Ilfracombe, known better locally as ILFRASCUM! boy, I can’t believe I left the South East to live in a hole like this.
The locals are classically inbred and embrace Chavism withought actually having the intelligence to understand fully what it is.
I had though shell suits were no longer available being the naffest of the naff, they still buy and wear them down here. The gold jewellery is quite often not actually gold as none of them could afford it.
Health workers have told me that over half the teenage population have Chlamydia and single mothers are rife, usually wearing cropped tops, allowing their obese stomachs to hang over their hipsters in a grotesque fashion. These girls have really made it in life when their chav boyfriend gets them pregnant and they can move out of the council house into a bedsit where they leech from society. I swear there are more of them here than in Harlow in Essex.
The male chavs idea of a good car is the classic Nova or Metro but its not souped up because they don’t know how and certainly couldn’t afford to. But they still pride in being able to hand brake turn round the sea front when the sun goes down.
The towns only nightclub is called Luckies, you would have to be lucky not to go there without having some local chav punch you for being an outsider, or even worse catching some infectious sexually transmitted disease from a local slapper. They spit and urinate in the street and take great joy at screaming at 2am because they feel great with all the exctasy flowing round their pale and puny bodies (cheaper than alcohol isn’t it). A previous description of Exeter is very relevant to Ilfracombe because most of the branded clothes seen on these scum are snide as well, bought down the pub that also embraces most other illegal contraband to supplement incomes.
A night isn’t a good night without at least one high street window broken, a fight and a takeaway from a van which ends up discarded on the floor.
The youth in this town live in a vacum of morals and standards, christ they even steal from the charity shops that seem to be every other shop on the high street.
When these chavs grow up what happens to them, well it seems they become town councillors who have no idea how to promote a failing seaside town, choosing to promote any event in the town with a hand painted sign at the top of the road. Have they not heard of proffesionalism?
They recently lost funding for a Marina, through total ineptitude, a major supermarket pulled out of a development on the outskirts of the town and so to is a local holiday firm considering pulling out, fed up of being messed about by insignificant people who do not have any vision when it comes to the future of Ilfracome.
Ilfracombe the home of the great chav pretenders because lets face it, they can’t even do that right.
I have live in ilfracombe for a few years and love it! I’m 20 own my own business and would never move! My partner is from a rough area in wales and loves it here compared to the ‘chavs’ and crime there, ilfracombe is a haven! Your comparing us to essex? Where everyone talks like idiots and wears way to much fake tan? Or is that discriminating you aswell like you have with us? We are a quiet seaside town, no need to professionalism when everyone is a close n knit community and no need for spending loads of money when we can keep things simple and the way it has been for years before technology etc came out. Whether you like it here or not, ilfracombe is full of beauty and I’de never move. ‘Chavs’ are everywhere, single mums (not that that’s a bad thing) are everywhere, take a deep look into your community before you diss ours. So immature and pathetic.
I live in Ilfracombe and have done for 11 years now. This town may not be perfect but it’s fine just how it is! If you look for chavs you’ll find them. Anywhere you go in the world you’ll find them! Don’t bad mouth this town because it’s not up to your ‘standards’. This town is a haven compared to some places and yes it’s also a disgrace compared to others, but what matters is that this town is a good place to raise children and a family and the residents are generally polite, kind and happy. People get drunk. So what? People take drugs. So what? I’m sure if you look deeply into any town, city or even villages you’ll find what you see in Ilfracombe.
Hi. I just read this and i’m pretty insulted. why would you write something like this. i moved to ilfracombe a couple years back and whoever you are that’s writing all this is bang out of order and ilfracombe is a far settled and far safer environment to live and to bring you kids up more safer than bring them up from Liverpool. i would know as i lived there and i lived in London the kids are lovely there get protective over each other and over the others and elderly that live around. but most certainly not all of them dress up like (chavs) there not all silly. besides some of them are going through their stages. so how can you say things like this and for rest of you slagging it down why don’t you come visit and see for yourselves reading this has really insulted me and i’m not impressed.
f**k me i just booked a holiday ere i aint comeing now u lot sound like a bunch of cunts bring on the london boys
You see those two posts above with the dodgy writing? That is exactly what you get in this chav town.
Ilfracombe has a dirty secret the town is ashamed of: Scoucers. 100s of the bastards.
When the town’s tourism was going down the toilet the BnB owners advertised in Liverpool, “on the dole? why not be on the dole by the seaside”. And so this little town became overrun with dole scrounging, drug-dealing Scoucers.
The main street is a crumbling mess, no one gives a toss about this chav town, even the locals have to use charity boxes to save for xmas lights (true).
Pubs: Buddys, chav; Bunch of Grapes, chav & drugs; Vic, chav & violence; the notorious Stagedoor, chav, violence, drugs, shellsuited Scoucers. It’s the same for all the rest really.
My advice to you is this, if you need to move to this area for work or whatever, DON’T. Go to Barnstaple instead. This town is dying, the locals know it but won’t admit to it. If you do then heed my advice, avoid Slade.
Save up your money to move somewhere else.
Don’t be seduced by the beaches nearby, this doesn’t make the pikeys and their pitbulls go away. When you get home you will wade through dog dirt to get to your door, you will find half the town drunk, you will have to wait for a drug deal to finish in the middle of the street so you can park up.
Even the locals are chavs if we are honest. There is a disease that is unique to North Devon, anyone who isn’t recognised is a ‘grockle’. Seriously, it is a bit like being English and walking into a small Welsh shop, you get ignored and/or stared at. It is odd.
So, the locals are ignorant drunken unemployed chavs and the town is overrun with drunken, unemployed, drugdealing Scoucers. Enjoy!
agree with you there danny. i went here a few years ago bad mistake or what 1 niteclub called luckys i mean whats lucky about it u were luckly if u could make it to the toilet with out some random person pushing past u or causeing a fight fights broke out in there every night never made the mistake of going back bonemouth is about the same there all basically crap places to go on holidays if u want a decent place its torquey heading there on may30th monday to friday. so allways stay wiv torquey now
I have to agree with the original post!
It is a chav town!
For many years it has been known by not only” by the local council, but by other organisation’s such as the the local MP police federation etc as the DWP capitol of North Devon inc a high crime area.
Reserch show’s that crime levels have improved since the 1990′s!
And as everywhere there are some nice people who live there.
And for a day out in the summer can be quite pleasent,
However
Much of what was and is said about this town is a fact!!
I was brought up in Ilfracombe and I have to say none of what you say makes sense at all!!!!!!
I also love the fact you talk about the lack of proffesionalism – Which of course is spelt wrong.
Sounds like you are the chav.
i worked in iffracombe 2 years ago building a douglas fir timberframe at a local atraction that was to be used as a visitors centre. sanctioned by your local council and spent a week in the town .you sound like a person who has no real undestanding of society and the place you live how do you expect people to react to you with that sort talk.if your so concerned about the state of the town get out there and help educate the children while theres a chance to change their views. have you ever thought the degeneration of society is as much about your attitude as theirs. if people feel you dont care about them why should they care about you. i found a lacal pub called the grapes which was spit and sawdust but not unwelcoming for normal working people but then i acted with an open mind and juged people on how they treated me not on clothes or body type it seems to me ilffracombes very similar to most uk towns by the sea tourism is a fickle buisnes and being next to the sea the reasonable working radius is reduced by half of that of somewhere further inland. therefore unemployment is probably higher than average and poverty can with the help of the self righteous breed contempt IF YOURE NOT PART OF THE SOLOUTION YOURE PART OF THE PROBLEM!!!

You idiots need to learn how to spell and write in proper English! It’s ironic that you are slagging off Chavs, when you are clearly illiterate fuckwits yourselves! Not much of an advertisement for the West Counrty is it? I don’t know what’s worse, Chavs or Fuckwits? – I guess neither are mutually exclusive – I’m no doubt wasting my time writing this as it’s unlikely that any of you plebs will actually understand any of it!
