although just up the road in Bolton, I felt slightly better in my first year because the Halls of residence I was in didn't have bars on the ground floor windows.

# Salford is a fantastic Uni.
One of the best technical academies in Europe. Sadly it happens to be in Salford ( well much of it is ).
I was born in Salford. I am quite able to give unbiased comment. It's a shithole.

# Indeed it is, but then the entire North West suffers from the affliction
Bolton too had a damned good reputation for engineering based courses (hence I started on the civils course, progressing on to arch. technology)
Apart from the muggings and car showdowns I suffered while there, it was a surprisingly 'ok' place.

and at least it wasn't Preston.

not a patch on norfolk though

# Oh god I was 7 weeks in Preston
refurbing Marks and Sparks. I can't tell you how much that pained me.
Still. Not a two-headed sibling in sight ;)
