| | BBC - collective - the idler book of crap towns |
 | | Since coming up with the idea for Crap Towns a couple of years ago, I’ve been labelled in assorted affronted local papers as “cruel”, “tasteless”, “insulting”, “scornful”, “obnoxious”, “greedy” and even “downright rude”. |
 | | We’d just had a reasonable amount of success with Crap Jobs, stories from the horrible world of work, and Crap Towns came naturally as a follow-up. |
 | | That said, I have to admit that I was slightly alarmed when a few months ago The Western Daily Press put a mugshot of the two of us on their cover and virtually exhorted their readers to exact their revenge. |
