but thats precisely the problem.. I have never heard of it! I have been to both Blackpool and Preston and actually they arent bad.. I have no problem with small towns, although I dont think they are the idyllic retreats that you portray. Generally I have seen more crime in small places than in big cities, because the youths have nothing to do but turn to alcohol, drugs and crime. Anyway to say that Kirkham is better than London or Birmingham is just nonsense in my opinion... but since the women are so great there its good that you dont need to venture too far from home.
You've never heard of it because it's a small town. I bet you've not heard of Freckleton or Poulton-Le-Fylde but if you ask anyone in Blackpool and Preston if they've heard of Kirkham & Wesham they will tell you they have and could point you the direction to it. There is no crime here. I've lived here a year and I've not seen anything, not a fight, no vandalism, nothing. Some teenagers knocked on my door the other day and handed my keys that I left in the latch from the night before. It's that kind of a community. Does that happen in London, Birmingham, Nottingham and Manchester? Does it ****! The teens would have nicked your keys AND your friggin car! The crime here is lower than average for the UK. Virtually zero. You can check the Fylde Borough council website for statistics. There is alot to do here. There are alot of amateur football teams here for a small community. There are swimming baths, sports facilities, golfing range, the gym, a local football team, Kirkham & Wesham FC that are about to be promoted to the North-West Counties Football League division 1. A local team that are heading to Wembley for the FA Vase cup final. This is a team that used to be a pub team.
You say that the fact Kirkham is better than London or Birmingham is nonsense yet you haven't heard of Kirkham let alone visited? I've visited Birmingham frequently and I've visited London.
Bloody hell, all this over me recommending my community lol. Pretty stupid really.
