Advantages: Nice people (like me),some great clubs & pubs, some great places to visit Disadvantages: The weather
...I have lived in Grimsby all my life, I was born in the Grimsby maternity hospital and grow up here and I wouldn't move away even if somebody payed me, well maybe.

Advantages: It's my home town Disadvantages: It smells of fish...
...win!) I left Grimsby in 1994, and I don't go back to visit very often. However, a heck of a lot has changed in Grimsby in that time, for this reason mine won’t be a comprehensive guide to the treasures to be found in Grimsby, more an opinion to give you a feel for the place as a whole.
I once heard Grimsby described as “the end of the line” and I believe that this is a name that suits the town very well. It really is the end of the line as far as ... ...absolutely honest most people treat Grimsby and Cleethorpes as one town anyway, they are completely and inextricably joined together, most people don’t even know where one starts and the other begins, although the border, I believe, runs right the way down the middle of the road in a terraced street called Park Street.

Advantages: A different and interesting holiday destination. Disadvantages: Not a great range of things to do, but a great place to base yourself to explore.

Grimsby was once the largest fishing port in the world, not just in Northern Britain, but the whole world, and that includes places like the Seychelles, India and Bedfordshire! Nowadays, because of the decline in the fishing industry it is a shadow of it's former self.

Well there's the National Fishing Heritage Centre which is perhaps one of the most exciting museums in Britain, it's won many awards and really gives you a feel of what it was like to be a trawlerman. Grimsby is also a great place to base yourself to explore the surrounding area. Next door is Cleethorpes, a fairly traditional British seaside resort with loads of things ...
