Alternative question
Is there another British city you would recommend?

Edinburgh

I was only talking about this the other day
How I've never been to Scotland. I will one day

Glasgow gets an unfair rep, it's worth a visit as well

(evening cheesy arse grease innit, Thu 25 Feb 2021, 10:17, archived)

I liked Glasgow but as a local said:
they're nice round here but they're either lovely or stabby, nothing in-between.

Swansea
the property is cheap, the people are poor so there's much exploitation to be had and fun to be found so excellent if you're a slum landlord or planning some county lines drug activity.

I was thinking more along the lines of
Staying somewhere for a few days, and seeing the sights. The property would have to be fucking cheap for me to buy a place there

Hmm. That changes things
Manchester has some great galleries, bars, restaurants, the waterfront in Liverpool is well worth a visit but The Kelvingrove in Glasgow is hands-down the most bonkers place I've visited in terms of art exhibits. I'd go back there for that alone. Brighton is shabby but fun.

Brighton is excellent if you're an insufferable food ponce, or practising homosexual

How long do homosexuals have to practice before they become experts?

Bristol's fucking gr8
I reckon I could live there if it didn't rain all the time

I've never been. That's one for the list then
I love Exeter. I know it's a different places, I just thought it was worth mentioning
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Thu 25 Feb 2021, 10:34, archived)

do you want to know something weird?
*I've* never been to Exeter! You couldn't make this up - it's like the fucking x files or some shit
( Queef Smegwin U r a 🔔🔚, Thu 25 Feb 2021, 10:36, archived)

So wait a minute, let me get this straight
You've been to Bristol, but I haven't. I've been to Exeter, but YOU haven't. This is spook shit. I'm a bit scared actually

Good guitar shop in Exeter, incidentally
They work with Tory fret-botherer Matt Bellamy, but don't let that put you off

I feel the same about 'Sir' Trevor McDonald

That wouldn't get shown these days, because racism

DB was taken off the air because he didn't berkele in man-made climate change.

Winchester

Yeah
Nice enough. I went there a few years back.

You could probably say the same for Portsmouth
Go to the historic dockyard, go to gunwharf for a wander a bite, then leave. Immediately.

that's exactly what I have done on the two daytime visits I've done
I did also do a couple of days' temp work on a big Sainsbury's (I think) site once too, which is where I learnt about the whole 'tide's out = reeks of faeces' thing. And I went to see Carl Cox in a club there in about 1991/2, that was alright

Honest to god, you don't notice the smell when you live there
It's only since living out of town, do i notice it

Dundee was always the butt of jokes for every other Scottish town/city.
I moved here for work in 2007, and actually really like it now. It's improved massively over the last 20-30 years. Shame about the accent, but at least it's not Glasgow.
