It's certainly in the right country, but it's no Glasgow.

I'm from somewhere a little more sophisticated than Glasgow ;)

I beg to differ.
But then, I'm biased, as I fucking love Glasgow.

Same
Probably my favourite city, which says a lot

Does Glasgow have a pier?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:29, Reply)

I sense a meme I am unaware of

b3th spends every spare minute she has on the new pier at Weston Super Mare.

and why wouldn't I?
It's fucking ace.

You know what? Bobby's here with a class full of brats tomorrow. I might just kidnap him and get him on the pier.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:34, Reply)

Bob is going to be covered in the vomit of 50 travel-sick kids.

Just a typical night out for him

No, but it has a boat that's a nightclub
which was, as a student spot, pretty fun.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:32, Reply)

Clubs on boats are for whooers

OMG SO DID NEWCASTLE!
It's moved now, though.

I have also been to Glasgow
but prefer Edinburgh, tbh. I like the compactness of the place.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:27, Reply)

I lived there for three years
and found everything to be ten minutes away from everything else, whether on foot or by train.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:29, Reply)

That's why I like it.
Newcastle is similar in that respect.

I was talking about Glasgow, sorry.
Edinburgh is a pig of a place. All hills and tourists.

We were talking about your wedding on saturday night
me and DiT are going to kilt up for it.

kilt lez
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:40, Reply)

That's weird, because Newcastle is a place all pigs and hills.

(Bazongaloid, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:34, Reply)

I liked Newcastle
I had a really nice visit there a couple of years ago. The waterfront is very nice.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:35, Reply)

I like it.
The Quayside has been transformed beyond all recognition over the last 20 years. When I was a student I did a bit of photography, which included a view of the river looking up towards what is now the Baltic art gallery and Sage. Dereliction everywhere. I curse my ex father in law for throwing my old portfolio away in a drunken act of pisswankery, as I'd love to take a shot today from the same vantage point.

5 mins walk from work
Waterline Friday lunchtime pints FTW
( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:43, Reply)

That's what I miss about working in town.
I've been stuck on a business park in Newburn for the last 7 years. Not exactly within easy walking distance of a pub for such things. A Friday pint at the Centurion before getting the train home was a welcome attraction at the end of the week.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:54, Reply)

If you find yourself in town during the week I'll catch you for a pint sir

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:59, Reply)

Unlikely at the moment
but thank you for the offer.

I struggle with the number of tourists - probably as it's a small city so more difficult to avoid them
One of the strangest parts of the wedding was coming out of the cathedral after the ceremony and having tourists take photos of us

Dude, London... there's no escaping the forrin bastards.

( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:32, Reply)

They seem easier to avoid as London is so much bigger

(Genuinely__Battered, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:33, Reply)

Liverpool's similar.
Even at the end of my road the taxi tours stop to take photos of Paul and Macca's school, and to be fed blarney by the driver.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:35, Reply)

Liverpool has a school?

(Genuinely__Battered, Tue 5 Jul 2011, 11:36, Reply)

It's a portakabin with some magnetic letters on the walls
