“excellent, pogle!”

“Brilliant Pogle - I chuckled at several bits, especially "The local bus station stinks of wee" and "it is rumoured that Laira is quite picturesque". Wish I could rate it more than once!”

“Please forgive me if I missed something but only has 3500 characters to fit it all in.
Should paste in well to their next brochure.”

“Here is my travellers guide to Devon perhaps they could past it in as an addendum:

Devon: A travellers guide. As you reach the end of the Mighty M5 Motorway you come across the Cathederal City of Exeter, a well situated place to visit with its own international airport, excellent road and rail links and a beautiful canal system. Visitors can enjoy a quayside stroll and enjoy refreshments at many of the waterside cafes along the way. For the shoppers there is an excellent town centre with a brand new shopping centre.

Once again we are on the mighty M5 nearing its end. Here you will find an option to veer off course and take the A30 North around the moors and miss most of the heavily populated parts of Devon and proceed straight to Cornwall.

If this option doesn`t appeal to you then carrying on off the end of the M5 you come onto the Devon express way or A38. Immediately you are once again given another tough choice, as you near the massive natural barrier that is Haldon Hill you can if you choose to veer off to the left and proceed straight onwards to Torquay, Dawlish, Paignton the Devon Riviera seaside towns with Beaches and Water Parks, Guest houses and reasonably good shopping facilities.

Should you decide upon this route you will also find yourself in the beautiful South Hams region here you can admire the sparsley populated villages where most homes are only occupied for a few weeks a year by their wealthy owners and otherwise lie dormant whilst the local population struggle to find suitable affordable housing in their own towns and villages.

Should you decide to stay on the Devon Express Way and chug over the summit of Haldon Hill you will soon find yourself on the way to Plymouth, passing Ashburton and Ivybridge on the way. If you are indeed luck enough you will find yourself frequently over taking one of the 300 or so lorries full of stinking rubbish heading in your direction. Rubbish that the clever folk of Torquay and the surrounding area are sending to be destroyed. Should you be lucky enough to choose a day when the A38 isn`t actually closed because of an accident as it frequently is you and the 300 or so lorries of rubbish will soon arrive in Plymouth.

Plymouth is the largest City in the Southwest of England. A University City, it offers no motorway, poor rail links, has no regional airport and absolutely no beaches. The City centre is a delightful mix of pedestrianisation mixed with traffic, neither being clearly defined. The town centre offers an impressive array of boarded up businesses and a small shopping centre at one end. The local bus station stinks of wee and it takes days to get anywhere by bus. The stinking Barbican offers everything from pole dancing to fish and chips or you could do a Dockyard and Warship tour by boat and marvel at the Once Royal Dockyard the largest under used facility in western Europe. If you are lucky you might see an actual warship (not likely)
You can stare in awe at the rusting remnants of the Nuclear submarine era as they lay rotting awaitng a messy dismantling process.

So this is Plymouth you had two chances to avoid it and didn`t take either so whilst you are here take a look at our marvelous Council Headquarters a listed building, stop by the incinerator and see where sensible people send their rubbish to be burnt and quickly slip over the Tamar bridge into Cornwall (where you should have gone in the first place). Beware of course we will charge you to return into Plymouth.

Now you have sucessfully passed through the backside of Britian and seen for yourself what years of under acheivement and military decline has produced please enjoy your stay in Cornwall and remember save yourself the misery of paying the toll and go home on the A30, you`ve already been to Hell once why visit again. Nothing to see here! although it is rumoured that Laira is quite picturesque. Happy Holidays!”

“The Southwest is one of the best areas in the country. It has variety - the moors, the beaches and the countryside and it is peaceful. Why advertise it? let's keep it to ourselves...Shhhh...”

“Them there Easterners don't know there's folk living to the West of Exeter. Not surprised really, who would want to visit quarries full of incinerator ash?

Plymouth - heart of the wastecountry”
