Edinburgh

[Mystic Mock]

Birmingham.

Seriously though I'd probably pick London because it seems to have most things in the country.

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

[Niamh.]

I'll be heading off to Liverpool for a weekend in a couple of weeks (via Manchester)

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.

I'll leave you to it then.

[bots]

excluding edinburgh is a big omission though

[Niamh.]

Never been to Edinburgh, just Glasgow and Aberdeen

[Redway]

What’s Edinburgh even like?

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.

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.

[bots]

edinburgh has everything within a short walk. As i'm from glasgow i hated it by default, but then many years after moving south i lived and worked in edinburgh for a year or so and loved it

[Crimson Dynamo]

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

[Crimson Dynamo]

All/Neither should be separate.

[Redway]

Slim’s not really from Liverpool, is he?

[Parmy]

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

Everything always seems better in hindsight, though. It’s a tale as old as time. IMO, if anything, Liverpool has improved since I made this thread. And there’s just so much going on in London, networking opportunities no-less. Some would also say it’s safer, if anything, technically than it was in the ’90s. And even then there would’ve been people complaining that ‘it’s not what it was in the ’50s’. I’m not trying to narrow or invalidate your experiences but I just try not to get sucked into the rabbit-hole of never appreciating the present, otherwise the cycle never stops.
