Manchester
 

Anyone else hate the so-called second London or is it really that litty-lit?

I really like Manchester, there’s tonnes to do without the crowds of London. You can also walk down the street not feeling like cattle, which I struggle with when I go to London.

For me it’s perfect as it’s busy, so many things to do, but just without the price and the over crowding

I love Manchester (no surprise there :laugh:). Its diverse, has a great music scene, loads to do, decent shopping and a fraction of the price of London.

Much prefer Liverpool (sorry Annie)

Honestly Niamh, I've cut people out of my life for saying less hurtful things :laugh:

You obviously haven't been shown Manchester by a Manc....:hmph:

Although I do live a good day/ night in Liverpool too

Oh fook off it’s the best city in the U.K. that’s that

And me but I’m obviously biased.

Manc.’s trash.

i cringe everytime i go back to manchester. chavy as cities come.

Dont come back then :shrug:

Christmas, quick in and out affair. 3 nights and then back to the elite life.

Literally the only city I've been to at night where I genuinely felt "threatened". Fighting, ambulances, police, drunks, druggies everywhere. Not very friendly locals either! :skull:

It was okay in the day like but yeah, that's marred it for me and I wouldn't go back in a hurry.

A lovely city full of lovely people. I’d say it’s one of the best in terms of diversity, and not to mention the student life over there with the occasional trip to selfridges :love:

Spent a weekend there a few years ago and loved it :love:

I love Manchester, had a bad experience once but been quite a few times this year and it was great everytime. Pride was absolutely amazing.

Still think Liverpool is a better night out though. Literally the loveliest people.

You should try Leeds or Newcastle.

In Leeds my friend got kicked out (they said she was drunk but none of us were that drunk) and a male door man threw her in the road and on the second night we went to one club and they let all the girls in but not the two guys with us and when we asked why it was blatantly about their sexuality!

litty lit

I can’t believe you haven’t checked on your main man for this long. I thought we were bro-mos.

Manchester is great

tbf I've only been once years ago for a Hen weekend. I'll have to look you up as a tour guide if I'm ever there again :love:

Are you from Liverpool Redway?

Knew you'd pop up in here eventually :fist:

Definitely Niamh....:love:

Checking to see who said it's a world class city so I can create an enemies list.

It has a lot going on but it's just not a very attractive city... I found Manchester centre really stressful just to walk around in :umm2:. It was the closest big city to me when I lived in Lancashire.

To be fair you can say similar for Glasgow; lots going on, lots to do, but compared to Edinburgh centre it's not an attractive city at all. Depends what you're looking for in a city, I guess, and how you rate aesthetics vs activities.

Hoping I'm number 1 :hee:
