i think the calgary version would be the fifty cent wanabees (mostly white) who hang out in groups in most major lrt stations/shopping malls etc, the difference from their british counterpart is that some of the time these teens are courteous and well behaved, only dressing to shock and eager to fit in with their 'half-cocked' hatted buddies

Isn't CHAV supposed to stand for Council House And Violent? They've even got their own website with forum.

Eastbourne, eh? Place of my birth. Where people sunbathe in cardigans and drip melted ice-cream on small children.

Now famous as the place where the fastest thing in town is "rigor mortis".

Ah, they were the days.

Granddad.

Wakefield? That's my postcode. Did you visit "The Ridings" (mall?).

No. Didn't see much of Wakefield really. Just used it as a home base to explore such places as Leeds and Skipton. We did shop at the ASDA in Wakefield though. After driving all over downtown looking for it. I eventually bought a Wakefield Map book for a small fortune to find it. No where near downtown as it turns out.
