Whitley- Aaah smell the scent of the sewage, the famously phrased Whitley Whiff. Arguably the chaviest part of Reading. The streets lined with large tatty council houses, community centres and various youth clubs. This is where you may want to settle down if your planning to build a large family of vicious mini-chavs with as many different partners as possible.
Southcote- Possibly the least multi-cultural area of Reading, where the chav’s here are predominantly white – but seem to wish they wern’t. Southcote hosts the 2 roughest schools in Reading also, Prospect and Hugh Faringdon. The only thing seperating the two is Prospect park, Reading’s centre of crime, where the young chav’s often clash.
Tilehurst- The area of chav’s coming from middle-class families. Usually chav’s that can talk the talk and that’s about it. So un-aware Mummies and Daddies provide there delightful children with the latest designer fasion and the stupidly over-modified car’s.
Fancy a night out at chav-land? Well why not visit possibly the chaviest club in the world – The Ice Bar. Where if you get looked upon by somebodies slag of a girlfriend, regardless of the fact that you probably havent even acknowledged her, you will get beaten the shit out of. Or the pleasent Bar Risa, where if you are stupid enough to take your girlfriend along with you, then to go and buy a drink or pop to the loo, you should expect a crowd of low-lifes to be crowded around her. Which again, is another excuse for you to get your ass kicked.
So I now come to my conclusion that, Reading is without doubt, the chav capital of Great Britain.
Surely the prize for worst school in Reading goes to Ashmead, unless they’ve closed it down? Reading is indeed an irredeemable shit hole. I pass through it on the train these days, otherwise have no intention of returning.
I’ve lived in Caversham for 9 years and Peppard Common for 7 years and have gone to The Abbey since I was 4 (I am now in the sixth form) and in my personal opinion Reading really isn’t as much of a shithole as you make it out to be. Yes there are a lot of chavs, there’s no denying that. But the town centre is actually pretty decent and the train station is extremely good for getting around places – as opposed to the station in Henley (one of the poshest and preppiest towns). Maybe if you stopped focusing on the shit around Reading you’d see that it’s actually not a half bad place. With Reading Festival and Womad, it’s doing pretty well for itself.
I’ve just moved to West Reading, and am from London originally.
I must say that Reading feels like the London of 30 years ago. Everyone talks like those those kids that used to ring up Swap Shop in the 1970s.
Reading is a shithole and should be wiped from the face of the earth. I know this scumbag thetwat09 who is from there and basically he is a chav just like the rest of them
hahahah the boi who obviously had a hard bullied life in reading. he is just moist cause he cant test any1 who lives in readin. bean head
You must be having a laugh, Prospect and Hugh Faringdon the roughest schools in Reading, good research
HAHAH
So true :’) what a shite town i live in.
I’d love to be able to defend the town in which I live, but it’s impossible. I sometime get scared while I walk the streets in broad daylight. Chavs are everywhere and the schools are pretty shit. Oh, thank god I go to a grammar school. Kendrick, Reading Boys and the Abbey are the only decent schools around.
I was born in Whitley, and it’s really not bad. I moved to maidenhead however and find that in some places it’s worse here than in reading! Get your facts right!
It’s not the worst place ever… I lived in Reading (Tilehurst) and went to Prospect. There are a lot of chavs and prospect aint great but there are some really nice people. I have lived in more chavvy places: Hackney, Brighton, etc I love Reading, and I have’nt got no problem with chavs (except the mindless rude ones) but then again you do get a lot of chavs judgeing you and shouting at you because of your clothes even though there clothes are terrible, mine just express my personality.
Spot on. Poor Reading Borough Council have tried so hard to avoid this image but Chavs roam everywhere, but are most of them just middle class suburban kids in baseball caps.
Granted as an ex-Readonian that Prospect Park school festers screaming low life scum that screech "awwww ma gawddddd" at anyone different. These people will never have a future……
nah m8 i rekon dewsbury az well more chavz den readin. BrAaAaP!!!!!
Dewesbury would get merked blood
