hi tijkmo - I went to Glasgow last year. Nice shops in fact second best in the country to London (and that's a known fact, sorry Manchester), but rest of Glasgow what a dump with the exception of my friends place at Bearsden.
Couldn't wait to get out of the City to explore the wonderful scenery on the way to the Isle of Skye.

Yes Dansk, you lot make the stuff, we sell it for a lovely profit. We don't want to get our hands dirty - we just want to make the money.
And by the way, England culturally DOES end at Watford Gap - where are all the best theaters, museums, architecture, art galleries and restaurants? Oh, they all happen to be in London.
And your reference to football, I'm an Arsenal fan so yes, I'm hurting this morning but haven't you heard of Chelsea? -

This thread seems to have been hijacked a bit - sorry about that.
Anyway, my tongue in cheek comment is that everyone knows that the South East of England is sinking - that's because we have all the money here weighing us down!
Also, the North and Scotland has only done well recently because lots of the money we make in the City of London gets transferred 'oop North' to help with the social deprivation.
Cheers!

Good poem but 'rain makes Britain Great'?
I thought England's fair and pleasant land always looks better on a sunny day, that's why I choose to live in the south east - I hate the rain! -

Hi Bikerchic
I've just come back from holiday in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.
We went to the Hard Rock Cafe there a few times and we bought 7 T shirts. If we would have known we would have got what you wanted too.
By the way, don't worry about the thread being taken over from Mancunians trying to make out that Manchester is the best - I live near London, I work there twice a week and I go for shopping, sightseeing, museums, meals etc etc as often as I can and I can assure you that I have travelled all round the world and possibly with the exception of New York, there is no where that can touch good old London Town! -

Why WHITBY is so important to us all!
by Gill inthe phrase is 'the truth is out there' and when we stumble across it by accident, it can't help but make a person wonder what else they never knew, and how pieces of the jigsaw gradually begin to fit together as we search for the 'truths of history'.. i love whitby.
whitby is a small town in the north yorkshire moors.
it sits on the coast with the magnificent ruins of whitby abbey dominating the sky line.

Gill, I know what you mean - after all those years of being told that all churches were part of Satans world, I realised that a lot of churches are very very beautiful, and even though I do not consider myself a christian now, I am in awe at the splendour and majesty of some of them, particularly the cathedrals.

Hi Gill.
You do make Whitby and Yorkshire sound a wonderful place and I shouldn't prejudge it just because it's 'oop north'.
We drove all the way from Essex to the Isle of Skye last year and some of the scenery in Scotland was absotlutely breathtaking. Also I have driven along the North antrim coastline in Northern Ireland and that is fantastic.
Yes, one day I will travel up to Yorkshire, to prove to myself why they call it 'Gods own country'.
Regards

The furthest North I have been for my job was Skegness - what an absolute dump!!
No wonder we southerners have preconceptions about the northerners - they were out in abundance.
I love the pretty, upmarket unspoilt villages in Kent mainly, also there are some lovely ones in Sussex and Essex too.
By the way, I recently visited Canterbury Cathedral - what a beautiful place steeped in so much history, and the centre of the good old Church of England too! I'm not a member by any means but I really love the English traditions of sleepy villages with a shop, a school, a cricket ground, a pub and a church. -

I must admit that even though I've been out of d troof for 4 years, when I hear something on the news that the Wittos could interpret as meaning the big A is near, I do get nervous.
But my wife Bubble just says that even if it were true there is no way she would want to live in paradise with all the morons from the cong.
I tend to agree with her. -
