Couple of people just landed in to work from Portadown there (beside Lurgan), heavy snow and traffic very slow. You should get there alright although I would give yourself plenty of time getting there

Larne often gets a mention, rightfully so, but as its by the sea it has at least one redeemable feature.

The same cannot be said for Strabane. A god awful sh*te pit.

Strabane would be my closest town-great spot back in the day for being underage and getting into Katy Dalys for a bit of badness. I remember my form teacher at school was doing the bar in it, some look on her face when we landed up at 15 looking jugs of fat frog

Newtownards or Newtownabbey two coplete sh*t holes. There are plenty of them in all honesty though. Only places I woukd live in british occupied Ireland are Belfast, Derry, Cushendall and surrounds, Newcastle and Jordanstown.

Larne is a sh*thole, but it does have the North Antrim coast road right there, so there are some redeeming features indeed.

Strabane is worse than my local town of Dungannon, and that is saying something. Lurgan is pretty crap but it's no Strabane.

Dungiven has scenery on its side, so it's not the worst.

Strabane is the "winner" of the golden turd.

However, Newcastle, Ballycastle and Cushendall are all nice enough spots.
