You will only know Nailsea if you have lived in or near there. I have lived in the village next door to it for ten years. It is a hellhole. It is degenerate, grey and the people are just disgusting. All thats there is a new look, a SOMERFIELD and a superdrug and oh yes, a TESCO. Everyone is either old or on benefits. Single mums galore. Everytime I go home from University, the very atmosphere makes me sick.
The desperate ‘alternative’ wannabes with their skinny jeans, dyed hair and h&m jackets, to the other extreme of ‘hoodies’ who hang around the town centre in an attempt to look threatening; in their dark hoodies, horrible hair, their tracksuit bottoms and their desperate air hanging around them, and in the meantime shouting obscenities at old ladies, and living in the large proportion of council houses. Oh and a skate park, which you should only go to in the day unless you have a death wish. If you grow up in Nailsea, you will never leave. Ever.
Wow, where are you from? Probably backwell what have they got? Oh yeah all there is is a sign saying welcome to nailsea. That’s the highlight.
Nailsea is mostly great, your ridiculous comment stating that there is a ‘large proportion’ of council houses, is just incorrect and bigoted. ‘The people are just disgusting’, maybe this is correct about your family, but what an insane and moronic thing to say. I’d love to know what university you are away studying at, as it will most probably poor. Your snobbery is just pathetic, comparatively with yourself.
Grey? You have clearly not seen Nailsea school in all it’s multicoloured “glory”. I’m not kidding, it’s a rainbow.
I’ve lived in Nailsea my whole life and sure it’s a bit boring but if you don’t try to find something interesting to do, you must be as boring as a stick.
Sorry I’m an Aussie…What’s a Chav!
Have been to Nailsea twice in 1994 and 2010 to visit relatives. What a change less pubs and Somerfields is now a Waitrose. 2010 I went to Backwell to catch a train. (only reason you would go there). I live in Australia, love Nailsea and can’t wait to get back there in Feb 2012. It is central to so many great places in England, and you are close to Bristol and Wales without having to live there. By the way what is a “shav”?
