I never liked liverpool any time i was there. London is just too big and inconvenient to get around. Edinburgh is a delight, it basically has everything, all within a very short distance but Manchester is my favourite for its abundance of choice and people

You’ve got to check out Baltic Market, Niamh. It’s amazing.

The thing is only one of those cities is part of my question-poll. I know discussions are fluid and-everything but we’re not talking about Edinburgh or Geordie Shore-land, not in this thread.

That's a tricky one, i mean you have awful people like Slim from Liverpool, awful people like myself from London, and lovely people like Annie from Manchester.

Come on, parmy. Tell us a little more about Edinburgh (I’ve been once, I think, but don’t remember much). I was a little hasty in writing off Scotland before.

I actually thought Scottish folks didn't like Edinburgh for being too English. Not a problem for Rangers fans who are loyal to England and the crown, but the decent scots at least.

Edinburgh is a poor man's Glasgow

Edinburgh is tourism,

Glasgow is realism

Edinburgh is no patter

Glasgow is patter

and, honestly, its not even close

I know it’s a past-time to always struggle to appreciate the present moment but nah. That kind of mentality’s not for me, otherwise you’ll never be happy with the present. People have been saying ‘place-X is going downhill’ since the beginning of time.

I certainly appreciated them when they were appreciable. So don't try and get wide about your experiences.
