Advantages: Post cards only

Disadvantages: Foreigners visit it - what must they think?

I wouldn't! I visited a couple of weekends ago - a lovely sunny spring day when most places should have looked their best. Not Brixham! It looked seedy, depressed and past it's sell-by date. Dog pooh, litter, boarded-up houses and shops, broken windows, grotty pubs and restaurants serving sixties style menus. And the ugliest car-park in the south west - or maybe you know of an uglier one?
I know that the season hasn't started yet and most sea-side towns don't look their best in March. I realise too that Brixham is a working harbour, not a facsimile. Perhaps the population is sesonal, hence the ghost town look. I'm disappointed and sad!
