What's so good about Swindon? Neil? Who thinks Neil is funnier than me?
I live in North Swindon Priory Vale (not shown in this video). It's a lot newer than the buildings shown in this video and we consider ourselves somewhat separate to Swindon.
Swindon lot are a bunch of little slugs with no personality, just jealous we're better at everything!
I remember Swindon with an ex-GF in the 90's. Magic roundabout was amusing. There was "old town" and "new town" and Stratton St Margaret's. I actually thought Swindon was fine and we had easy access to Cheltenham, Bristol and London.
I remember the Sun Inn as a nice pub in the dog walkers park.
I don’t think it looks too bad, I’ve seen worse
I have lived in Swindon for forty years, and I still get lost sometimes.
Is Swindon that bad?
Yes.
But then, I grew up in Chatham, which is equally a shithole.
My daughter lives in shithole… sorry I mean Swindon
It's missing culture, you need several kabob shops that feature garish signage that features zero text and low res jpgs of the food they offer
Swindon looks fine to me but im from Dublin 😊
Greetings from OZ. I was born in Wroughton (not Swindon) in the time of Don Rogers. I lived in Swindon and the surrounding area until 1973 – then I escaped!
Boris Johnson's sister said it was the armpit of england.
Watch as the Lotus Eaters dox themselves! Also, nice of them to get Callum to voice the ending to this one.

When you look at an average working class suburban street in America, Canada or Australia, they have lovely wide tree lined streets, manicured lawns surrounding huge houses that usually have an attic, garage and a cellar, plus room for a pool and basketball area. When you look at a working class suburban street in the UK, they are oppressive and depressing. There are usually no trees, the public paths are NOW the front lawns, the houses are all stuck together like lego, they are tiny, cramped, and lack any charm, the street is usually filthy, and the people are all mismatched and miserable. It's one of the main reasons i despise this country, and want out. For decades we have had brutal architecture dictate our surroundings.
Oh dear lol. And now they are wanking around on youtube for money. Oh dear. Blabbing about "europeans" oh dear
I saw Gooch and clicked. I am a simple man.
Went to art college at Swindon, Old To🎉wn, actually a purpose built art college.. used to quite enjoy the 20 min walk from train station to the facility..
Plymouth's population is 265000🤦♂️
Miserable, depressing, dwelling units for the plebs. This is what you get when you take a small island and cram 80 million people into the tiny area that the government allows the "lower orders" to occupy.
Christ on a bike, I met my daughter here as a midpoint between West Wales and Home Counties. Utterly soulless
Abandon hope all ye who enter Swindon.
(Lived there 2 years)
By far the worst vid ever shared by you guys🤣
Swindon is the worst city in all of Europe, not just England or Great Britain, and I say this with all the confidence of an American who has never been to Swindon but has heard the rumors. And those rumors smack of the complete and utter truth.
“Play kerbsy”thought was just kerby?
Gorse Hill
Not one mention of the County Ground lol.
He loves map games but he can't use one. Brutal.
Im happy here in America. My house isnt built on top of another house. I have rows of 100 foot pine trees blocking my closest neighbor at 200 plus yards away. I own 16 acres and my house is made of logs not plywood. The local lords arent telling me what my house looks like and i dont have a kebab shop on one side and turkish barber on the other. I can put a sign in the FIELD that says whoever i want to vote for and not have muslims burn my house down. If they wanted to i have a couple of rights that will change their minds…to chunks. Glad my ancestors had the intelligence and guts to leave that tiny isle for better lives.
Hehe
Swindon is giving Slough a run for its money.
Sorry lads, we don’t have trash bags or garbage cans. We have rubbish bins, and bin bags, we are in England! Not the US!
Has to be said, one one of the worst posts by Lotus Eaters. And Stelios wasn’t involved, incredible
Old town was fine i lived there for a year
Are you on the right side of history?
No, but I'm on the right side of Swindon.
Gorse hil , come on lads lol
Mancy road is by the bus station down the road from the train station in town centre and on the other side is the magic roundabout with the fire station. New college is sign posted opposite Manchester road on the other side of the magic roundabout. if you keep following it you go past new college and go right to get to old town through the park. Yet you lot live in Swindon, you sure?
Oi ! You lot , I was born and raised in the real ' Mordor ! '
Tolkien went to King Edwards school in Brum. As a boy, probably during the school holidays, he found a vantage point to look across to the Black Country . Probably from Wasselly Hills Park. At night in summer the forges in the BC. would throw the twelve foot high doors open to the night flooding the area with a ghostly orange glow , and if you studied hard you could make out dark human like shapes looking like they moved through fire …… That was the origin of the concept of Mordor : The Black Country !
…
Jesus lads you walk rnd Swindon with your frickin eyes closed 😂
He lived in Swindon 25 years …. not great on geography of the area …..it only 7 miles across and 7 miles long ………MATE you need to EXPLORE and learn why EXPLORING is Awesome fun ………
….Get on bike and just explore ……..
To be fair i was like this 3 years ago ..then i got electric bike and started to explore london …and most fun ever had and knowledge is greatly increased ….i know all canals in london now and can get from one side to other using just rivers or all the parks …i can pretty do it faster than any form transport because routes i go no cars can
If you dont explore the area you live …..Then what point living in that Area …does it matter what area your in ..if you dont explore it …..since i started exploring area i live did i start to enjoy it …to start to appreciate it more …..
Best parts London is parts is parts that cars cant go ..there loads ….the rivers and canals is amazing
Exploring on google maps aint it ….id love to meet with Carl take him around London on Electric bike for few hours and show him side london very few who use cars or buses ever gets to see ….a proper explore for ancient woodlands to rivers to side roads that blow his mind all in london and possible to do all those things in as little as hour on Ebike …..Pretty sure he perspective of london would change …that it would understand what he sees is not what it all is …..
You've got the White Horse, the Ridgeway and the cool stone circle.
Stop moanin'! 😃
that street view looks like an american ghetto
I’m from a nearby county had to get a bus in Swindon last year around the outskirts of the city, never seen that kind of poverty in Southern England before… I’d say the suburb areas are nice enough though
England (outside of modern architecture areas that ruin every country) always looks like a story book world. It's hard for me to even imagine going to a dance class in a building as tall and beautiful as a large church. Hope England survives diversity initiatives long enough for me to visit one day.
First photo, my mum and dad's home….lol
