I wouldn't go to Dubai
It's one of the biggest shitholes in the world.
It's not quite as bad as Cairo, Coventry or Harlow though.

I'd go to Paris or Bordeaux - those are cool cities.
Berlin or Cologne are also cool, but I don't know them as well.

I've been to both, as a tourist
I loved Paris but thought Bordeaux was a shithole.

Compared to Paris it's not all that
but in it's own right I think it's pretty cool.
I bet the nightlife is pretty strange.

Agreed on Harlow.
I fucking wish I hadn't been born there.

This explains so much.
I bet your pram was made from concrete and you cried when you saw your first tree becuase you thought it was an alien's lung.

Hahaha!
If this was true I'd be happier, as going back there ever week would be less painful.
I was born there, then swiftly removed to middle-of-fucking-nowhere for 18 years.

I'm not just any chav.
I've got the Adidas Three-Stripes in birthmarks down my legs.
That makes me the King.

that's why my child is not being born in Harlow.
*unashamed snob mode*

did you know
that Harlow is twinned with Havirov in the Czech Republic?
doesn't stop it from being the most depressing town I've been to in the UK outside Peterborough though.

I did not know that, nope.
It's a horrible, concrete bastard.
Really good music-gear shop there though.
