i wish you had titled where some of the photos were from. I left St.Helens when i was 17 to live in New Zealand. I have never been back, but remember my childhood days and people.
St helens is a decent town,but since they built the linkway and with more buses operating,it has made it easier for undisireables from surounding areas to come in to the town and cause trouble.
I grew up there as a kid in the late seventies early eighties. What a racist shit hole of a town. I used to go to Cowley though great school and good memories.
that statue keeps crackin me up everytime I drive past YMCA... oh yeah and the sunset made the world of glass look like a factory... did you find the gate around the fence in taylor park n'all? (I just like to prove I'm from st.helens)
north east of liverpool if u want to know where that is england ya st.helens is awseome wernt born there but i lived there before i was 1 still livin here
I live in a town called Whitehorse and for all it's beauty there is this underlying darkness. Lots of coke dealers, voilence and negative energy. Sadly comforting to know it's not just confined to Whitehorse. Those of us who are good will shine through the grey. Cheers and thanks for posting this song:) Alan Frew rocks:)
hi all, i agree with lolguy543, st.helens does have it's down and outs but it also has some really nice people. all towns/villages/cities have the scum and the innocent and they also have their nice and rough areas. i've lived in st.helens all my life (am 21 now) and i've had good times and bad times, but i take that as just a part of life, scum do the crime, they do the time. am i wrong? p.s. great video!!!
Oh fiestaoh fiesta! You were the first love of my life from the top shelf! Pride is a rather conceited emotion wouldnt you say? You obviously have some personal issues with Scousers and areas of Scouse overspill, its a common theme hereabouts.
Embarrassment is more an issue for me.
Im not embarrassed to say I've lived in St Helens nor Ellesmere Port
Caring matters, I comment when I care. If dont I wont waste my time writing.
Off th Haydock Supper barbigger fish to fry. Laters.
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to reassure me that there ARE good people in the town, deep down I know there are because I have many good friends living in the town and I wouldn't have returned. I am somewhat dismayed that there are some here spoiling it for the vast majority of good folk. Had my car trashed recently, so forgive me for feeling just a bit p*ssed off by the actions of some. There are arseh*les in every town, sad but true cocker. Still, nice vid.
Actually, home is where I can afford to live. Home is close to the schools where my step children are settled. Home is near work. Home is an hours drive from my daughter, from my first marriage. Home is close to family. My heart says home is the Hebrides, beautiful but impractical. Home is where my head is. Whilst there is love in this home, this extends to wanting my children to grow up in an area containing as few chavs as possible. Is that too much to ask? I think not.
ive lived in st helens since i was born, its a pile of shit and your all a bunch of wankers if you think that grey,dark god forsaken place is something to be proud of. idoits
Could someone explain what those Statues are for/mean in Parr at 1:20... They was there years ago when I was in Primary School. Always wanted to know what they're for.
the strange thing is that these pics make st helens seem amost......not awful.((btw i am from st helens so dont have a go at me(actually you should probably have a go at me BECAUSE im from st helens LOL))
Outstanding. I moved away from St Helen's about 10 years ago. We lived in a load of the pibs that you showed in this clip. It was nice to see them again. Thanks.
Great Video - Have lived in a borough of St Helens all my life. I dont really like what St Helens has become, it's kinda dirty. Your pictures take me back to when my memories of St Helens are fond. Thankyou. Have you thought about doing another video?
Very Nice takes me back, left St Helens in 1980 once it started to go down hill(Chavs+Scum)Give me Devon cos I am in heaven surf every week no Chav Scum.
Hang Ten for the vid and tune saintjeff, watch out for them gnarly dudes (chavs and scum ).
St Helens is awful ! Lived there for 27yrs , just bricks & mortar , no countryside & the majority of people aren't nice! Plus it bloody stinks , & the accent .......soooooo common.
What? , you can make it out amongst all that concrete , smog & litter ? . Why don't you go on a day trip out the town some day & when you return you may see where I'm coming from ... Butthead lololololol
JESUS CHRIST some of them were old pics,was that grass i saw in front of town hall?sutton is best part of 'tellins.should av put some of sutton on.you got st cuthberts in tho.well done,my old school
well if we're going to get technical about things here first of all most of the rugby fans haven't a clue about the game as they always try to intimedate the referee second of all your complaining about me calling it a city when you can't even spell nice you cockrider
My name is Emeline. I'm live in Chalon sur saône and I want to tell you your video is very interesting and I went in St Helens in march 2007 and in April 2006 in lindisfarne for training course
this is a nice video and almost made me cry cus i left st helens nearly 2 years ago now to live in glasgow and i aint been home since and i was happy wen i saw this video it was me all over one day i want to go hom eto my town st helens just wish i knew a way:(
St Helens has more wankers in it than any other city i have been to i'm a rhinos fan soon to be player, fingers crossed i pass the trial, and if there hasn't been a stadium i haven't been to it's "Knowsley Road" cos it's a shithole then again though goes well with the city/ well more of a town.
I agree, it does have more wankers in than any other CITY. Even though we ain't a city you gormless shitbag. Your a clueless fool. It aint a city at all, its a town ya bellend!!
im from St Helens. Blackbrook. its a nice town, full of chavs from Parr like. with their staffies, and phones with MCing on. if chavs were eliminated, St Helens would be a better place.
Parr born and bred. went to cuthies. lived in germany for 20 the last years though. get home once a year for a pimmies heartburner. sent a link to our kid down in london aswell. good laugh watching it together while chatting on skype. great vids. so? and you?
nice pictures. I dont know how you managed it. In reality its a complete dump full of in bred backward speaking morons.you need to move to a place that will appreciate your good eye
Look, i realise it's not the best place in the world - infact far from it - however, you do not need to come on here and insult the home town of about 20,000 citizens, many of which are very respectable people. It's just not nice and it isn't appreciated. I live in St.Helens and i would love to move to Manchester - but it is the lovely friends and family i have that keep me here so i don't think that all of these so-called "inbred backward speaking morons" are all that bad.
