Title: Grantham (from: Fethiye new town centre).
Post by: desmartinson on August 15, 2012, 19:07:33 PM
It looks lovely.  Can't wait to get there.

If you think Calis is getting dated, run down etc., and a bit boring, then you ought to live here in Grantham!  It makes Calis look like paradise.
What or where the hell is Grantham.

How would you know John? you,ve never been out of Scotland have you? joking aside though, of course i know where Grantham is, the greatest prime minister since Winston Churchill was from Grantham, Margaret Thatcher, who when we lose her will have the honour of a state funeral, the only one i beleive since Winston Churchill.  ;)  :)

Not happy with Grantham....!!! What about the glorious upgrading of Westgate and the the err, ummm, recent new way into Morrisons and the new plant trough outside the town hall? Reminds me of the time I once went to the Ken Dodd show at the Meres and when he asked the audience "what is the posh bit of Grantham?" one wag shouted Newark!

Poor old Maggie would be turning in her grave if she were dead at what has become of her birthplace.  It is a town of taxis, takeaways, traffic lights and there is nothing better the population here of the great unwashed love than ordering their taxis to collect them after their weekly shop of lard, white bread and turkey twizzlers.  The rubbish litters the strees, the tattoo'ed young ladies abound pushing their pushchairs into their housing benefit paid-for new houses while their husbands frequent the 8 nightclubs in the town before retiring home for the night with their McDonalds, KFC's or pizzas from the 50 or so takeaway joints that run the length of a one mile strip of a once grand old Georgian town. 

Anyone who moans about Calis really ought to come here for a weekend - it is like Magaluf without the sun.

Another brilliant topic hi-jacked, and this time it has degenerated into promoting probably the most hated bitch in British political history !! >:(
If Thatcherites REALLY find the need to extol the somewhat dubious virtues of this person, please, please start a new thread, & do not besmirch Fethiye Lovers thoughts of what are fantastic improvements to a place we all love .

Amazing what this new forum allows us to do. Welcome to a new topic about Grantham. The old topic about Fethiye centre improvements is where it was  :)
