Hmm, Port au Prince, Haiti before the earthquake was pretty poor, wouldn't like to guess now. Pointe Noire Congo with the dead bodies wafting up and down on the tide was quite a low light as well. Paradip, Karachi,  Caracas now, and any number of other hell holes cross my mind.

I was expecting blyth to be mentioned

What's scary is some of these places are now on street view even if taken by a man holding a stick

Sorry dude my commiserations my comments no matter how well intentioned or accurate were not intended to point out just how bad your situation is.

Take the car, the roads are pretty quiet at the moment if you need to get to work, you won’t get frozen, risk coming off on ice or getting your bike covered in road salt.
