Dartford - and surrounding areas
|
|
The bint is looking to move from E17 and can only afford a 3 bed in Kent
Seeing as the only time I've been out in Dartford was about 1984 to see soft cell at flicks any info I have is out dated by now
Apparently the schools are good (she has an 8yo) but other than that any ideas on the good areas and the bad areas
Thank you lovely Kentish people

Thamesmead could of been a lovely place when built (the new side) but Labour shipped all the scum into there

If we're being absolutely frank, 9 out of 10 urban UK areas are shit holes.

I don't know either of those puns. I'm pretty much opposite bluewater. But since the little one has come along I hardly go out.
I'm hoping that Theme Park is gonna send house prices up and I can move on to be fair.

Badger, been there once to get my car serviced, I had to drive through Dartford and it looked awful, at least Crayford had a big green space, some old house and park !

As Joey says here :

Things are going to change in the area when the theme park is built:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paramount_London
The area's a bit of a shit-hole, but prices are going to rocket and when they do, you can sell up and move to proper Kent - Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding idylic hamlets.
Speak to OneMac. He moved from Essex to Kent last year and confided in me, the other week, that his only regret is that he didn't do it earlier. Reckons the people, the pubs, the women, everything is better down in the Garden. Says he can at last just relax and stop being flash and poncey. Rumour is, he's even binned his tanning lotion and teeth whitener.
Perfick.

Expect to be terminated in Dartford - it is quite literally at the end of the line.

It's not that bad I think gruesome summed it up well when he said it has no redeeming features at all, feels absolutely soulless. But I grew up living in and around kidbrooke/Charlton/woolwhich and dartford is better than that, it depends what your comparing it to.

The Ivy leaf is ok. Cant stand the governor though. Malt shovel just down the road is a better pub. If your near Princes road you need to be the west side of it really.

The Ivy Leaf is just off Princes Rd, 5 minutes from the ground. Lovely little pub

Badger,
Alex, blonde girl. Used to be a barmaid, her mum owned the boozer I believe and she just worked there.

In all honesty Dartford isn't that bad.
Compared with Thurrock just over the water, Grays and Aveley especially, Dartford is much better, great schools, good transport links and quiet streets, if you're off Dartford Road or Princes Road for example.
