Withernsea
04 August 2005
It started off as a spar town in the turn of the century, but the demolition of the railway service has left it a shabby deprived shell.
If you have seventeen screaming kids, tattoos on your face and neck, a slot machine addiction and love crap food, come to Withernsea, you’ll love it!

THEY SELL CRAP TO PEOPLE FROM HULL
Withernsea’s primary industry seems to be selling seaside touristy crap to daytrippers from Hull. The sea wall is made up of cement blocks that look like somthing built to protect a WWII battlefield from a tank invasion - which maybe is the only thing that would make Withernsea more pleasant. When I was there a crowd had gathered peering into the depths of these blocks, so we wandered over to see what the attraction was. They were watching a group of rats, frolicking around in the litter.
