Places you would never want to visit.
Where in the world do you just have no desire to visit.
Mine would have to be New Jersey, Afganistan, Any where with sharks.

What do you have against afghanistan?
![]() I'd like to visit lots of places... if only to get a better idea of different cultures. I think I'd only really draw the line at places which have the potential to put me in danger. So, some of the hot spots in the middle east, and Africa are out for the moment. Although, ONE day I'd like to do a dig in the region of the Gaza strip... if it ever settles down. There's so much history in that region.

Any place in a desert. I hate the heat, grit, sand, and I love trees, which I hear deserts are kinda short on. Oh yeah, I like lots of water. The real stuff, not a mirrage.

hmmm well i'd hate to be dragged to Cumbria (if thats even a real place - i have no idea and i dont really care).
I just said that because I live in New Jersey. I'm sorta insulted that you would list NJ FIRST on your list of places you don't want to visit. I got over it pretty fast but why would you say that? There is nothing wrong with NJ its just like any other state....... If you said that because JD advertises that he is from NJ - then that is understandable ![]()

Angband, Cirith Ungol, Mordor, Minas Morgul, Thangorodrim, Orodruin, Nargothrond once Glaurung was through with it, Dol Guldur, Helcaraxe, Utumno, Avathar (the place Ungoliant lived). All those are places I would not want to go.
One place I'd find interesting (after the War of the Ring) would be Moria. |

I love travelling and seeing new places, so I'm not sure if there is a place I would not visit. Perhaps places with a lot of mosquitos.
And the dentists, of course. ![]()

Philistines.. I visit Castle Rigg (in Cumbria) every May Day and it's just beautiful.
As for places I wouldn't want to visit..... A lot of Russia doesn't interest me. A friend of mine moved out there and he says the standard of living is just appalling (not to mention the crime rate) Australia......heat (yuck)......and if their society is anything like that neighbours tv programme it will be just too terribe to contemplate ![]() |

Ah, and there was I in the Lakes all last week, up on the fells, walking round the lakes, spending time in great pubs serving proper beer, watching rugby league games... if ONLY I had known there was a special regional deal on a gut rotting soft drink!

You know me, always in moderation! Plus it depends on the beer...I wouldn't trust the stuff pumped full of chemicals in the big fizz factories, but I was sticking to real ale...the Coniston Bluebird was spot on, shame I can't find it on draught anywhere else!
Was a seriously good holiday - nobody here can believe I've got a deep tan from a week in Lakeland!
