Apparently there is a parallel competition to the "Seven Wonders", called the "Stevie Wonders". You have to select places that you'd rather not see at all. Mine would be:
Molineux
Carl Chinn
the M6
Molineux
the M6
Carl Chinn
Coventry Airport

does Hereford count? (Get a bypass built now!!!)
I'd have it as all 7 nominations! Takes me longer to drive through there than anywhere else on the planet.

Although I might add Shrewsbury's awful market hall to the list as well.

New Street Station - No bins, No trains and no hope of getting home at a resonable time Wolverhampton - it saddens me to think every day i pass through there - thank god i only pass!!! Telford town center shopping center - no heart, or sole to the place - the most stale kind of place to shop. Walsall football stadium - next to the motoway laughing as in rakes the cash in from adverts at all who pass - Walsall got lucky with this stadium loction and i would like to see where they would be with out it!! Wood End/Green - Covnetry - been there two times once to retrive my stolen car, once to pick a mate up who got battered by some local yobs!!! Senci University town Coventry - happpy Days! The chaviest place in the West midds bar none The M6 through Brum - there never going to finish the road works so why not blow it all up and start again - it might have been easier!!! And last but not least - AFC Tinpots ground - just cos it would be funny |

Rob Im not stupid – I know that’s the reason – still annoying non the less – cos the place is such a scank hole at the moment – think the cleaners must be on strike or something – although not as much as the annoying automated train delay system where the same voice repeated delays over and over again – that more than anything drives me mad there

2 times eveacuaed from New street cos of a terroist alert and one massive delay on a train for a alert at Wolves once Better safe than sorry i guess Mike just this months maxim and it comes with a load of Warning stickers that you can put around the place like one for a bar that says on a big arrow "this bar maid shags customers" or another for putting on a appple in a supermarket "if you eat one apple all year eat this one , maxim 5 stars"  But i saw one some on ehad put on the train today on a lose panel in the corridor that said "Terrorists - please Stow all dirty bombs here" Classic |

A vaguely interesting fact about Carl Chinn, which may interest Mr Ghost and others who like a flutter - he & his family were former bookies and he has just released a book all about bookmaking and how it wasn't until the early 60's that the likes of Hill's and Ladbrokes were able to open shops on the high street.
Just found it on Amazon - "Better Betting with a Decent Feller: A Social History of Bookmaking" by Carl Chinn, just come out in hardback.
Do agree with others though he is a pain in the arse most of the time - he is the professional Brummy : any survey which says Brummies are thick, the place is a sh!thole, the accent is awful etc., he is always dragged on to Midlands Today or whatever to plead the case for the defence !
