I wouldn't say Haywards Heath is particularly horrid, but I'd nominate it anyway because it's f***ing dull.

You obvioulsy feel at home then.

After enjoying the delights of living in Fratton and Coventry, Sussex is God,s own country .... Apart from Hastings which is he'll on earth

East Grinstead has little to recommend it.

Far too close to Surrey for my liking, home to a nightclub regularly voted Britain's worst, high street full of charity shops and 99p stores, on a train line that serves NOWHERE else in the entire county - requiring you to change at EAST CROYDON if you actually want to go anywhere nice AND it's home to those seriously weird fuckers the Scientologists.

Add to this list the fact that there is not ONE single boozer where you can get a drop of Harveys or indeed ANY decent ale AND the fact that it featured on last week's Crimewatch and you can see why I'm not really a fan.

It also does not have any mens clothes shops, go figure.


Worst.

Hastings, Lancing and shoreham are right coastal shitholes, but for the most boring place in sussex I am suprised Horsham hasn't been mentioned. Its worse than Gaywards heath an burgess hill easy.

Define "Horrid"?

Every town/city has its good parts and bad parts. To define somewhere as "horrid" is quite frankly a narrow minded statement.
I'm guessing you reside in none of the above? If you don't; how can you comment on what it's like to live there?
It's not all about the entire town/city, it's about the area you choose and the people you socialise with (not via the internet).

All i have to say to you sir is... :tosser:

*Rant over* :whisky:

While on the subject of boring..Petworth, Pulborough, Billingshurst and Eastbourne.

I'm from East Grinstead and while I'll admit it is a little dull, I consider myself quite lucky cos it was a very decent place to be a little kid - plenty of parks/fields to play football in, a small but perfectly adequate cinema, Wickenden's sweet shop, a swimming pool etc. Granted anyone over the age of about 16 is going to get a bit bored and the town centre's gone a bit downhill recently but really that could be said about 90% of towns in the UK. And at least it's GOT a trainline. I'm living in Cleethorpes at the minute (moving back down south in September though, thank god) which is far far worse than East Grinstead!

Your beginning to bore me now, well theres no suprise in that I suppose. are you employed to knock out insomniacs with your jibber jabber?

I dont know what it was, it could have been a love tryst between former tory minister Leon Brittain and our chairman for all I know.

Cant help but think horsham only exists to hide Crawley from the gaze of Basingstoke. Or as a warm up act on the A24 before going on to boring pt 2, Worthing.

Instead of slagging off another town, I'll defend Hastings..
As one who knows the town quite well, rather than getting my information from tired, lazy and unrepresentative news features, I'd say it's got more vibe, soul and bounce than just about anywhere else in the county.
Actually, contradicting my first point, I'd rather eat my own kidney than go back to Rye.
