Arrghh! Cry off as soon as you can. I've been to Skeggy and it is a desolate place. It's impossible to get a good meal and after a hour, you start looking at your watch and wondering why? |

Skeggys a typical English coastal resort, cheap, tacky, run down and a bit rough.
Stayed there for one night a year ago on the way to Norfolk and it hadn't changed much since I was last there 20 odd years before that, apart from a few places were now closed and derelict. |

Nowt wrong with Skeggy had many a good day on the ale there. Start in the boathouse and work your way up. I would say the foods marginally better in the lumley than the lion but there are plenty of places to eat and drink. |

So because you think Chesterfield is a shithole (I've lived here all my life and I can assure you it isn't, but you're entitled to your opinion) you think I shouldn't comment on Skegness? It's an absolute dive lol. |

I've been to both Chesterfield and Skegness and both places have their issues, but I'm sure whoever lives in them can find the nice things that visitors don't get to see.
Personally I'm lucky, I come from Mansfield, which I'm sure we can all agree is the centre of the known universe. |

Yeah, you probably shouldn't move here if the opinion of Skegness from someone you have never met is making you have second thoughts. Equally, if you're going to call it "Chezzy", please don't come it's Chesterfield. |

I'm very sorry to hear that Tina. My condolences. At least it's not Rotherham, I suppose? |

Sorry for the term! I think Chesterfield is a grand place... I have been coming over since before you were both born, but I am afraid it is not a second-hand opinion of Skegness it is my home town |

"I quite like Skeggy. Chesterfields a dump though "
You're not allowed to say that. You live in Alfreton, therefore you're not allowed a negative opinion on other places. Sorry duck. |

What has chesterfield done to upset so many people?
"
Nothing, tis a fine town. I've upset some people though therefore it's fair game
It's absolutely beautiful outside at the minute, bathing our wonderful town in golden rays. Delightful |

We went Butlins Skegness about 20 years ago. Beach was covered in donkey crap and my children came running into the apartment shouting " They're all foreigners! They don't speak English!" Great holiday though |

We have had a couple of fantastic weekends at butlins. I don't honestly think we could stay a week though. |

He certainly is but I must admit I'm more bothered about the income from his performance to pay off our stadium debts as opposed to his actual music |

We had two weeks. Kids loved it and they were kept busy all the time. Since then the camps have been upgraded. I must say the pool was excellent |

At least Skeggy's church spire isn't all twisted I've been to both towns regularly and they're both great places to be - same as anywhere really in that there's a lot of decent people but a minority that enjoy causing trouble for everyone else... Xxx |
