Thumbs down

Place is a dump anyway IMHO. G/f used to live there. When I went to see her I used to stay in Filey, can't stand Scarborough, it's a wannabe blackpool.

Plus some theiving scum stole my rear badge up there, which cost £67.18 to replace.

Should rename it Chavborough with all the oily baseball cap wearing clods I saw attempting to drive 20 year old sheds around the 'seafront'.

Scarborough, it's a wannabe blackpool.
Kin ell. Talk about setting your sights low.

You'd need to empty a few hundred skips full of rubbish around Scarborough to start with.

Like many UK seaside towns it's a low rent, scummy hole, populated by vile low lives. Best to just avoid.

It was quite Chavvy the last time I went, about 2 years ago.

Blackpool was dead central Chavmania by comparision. Both **** holes that aren't worth a 2nd visit.

So are Skegness and Cleethorpes, and that's not saying much:

Seriously, if you want parking probs, you should live where I do, where we elected a conservative council, by one seat, all conservative councillors coming from the villages etc.

The first thing they do is abolish car park charges anywhere outside Scunny, and the second thing is to double car parking charges actually IN Scunny:

All this for a fekkin town that's dying anyway, and is the only place of any size within 50 miles without some sort of indoor mall:

I just LOVE living here:

And as for rock, you should have come back down the A165, through Bridlington, to Carnaby industrial estate and gone to the John Bull rock factory/shop there - it's ot it's own car park

It's not possible to park in Scarborough
The best places are around the sides of the town - either just part the castle to the north, or on the clifftops to the south. It's a bit of a hike either way. And your car might fall off the edge, like that hotel
That reminds me, I've not had rock in ages
