Manchester was like the North Capital
Promised so many big Ventures by Stinking New Labour

but like so many projects
they went back on their word.

What has Manchester gone back on? And have you seen the changes that have happened up here in the past few years or so? I wouldn't exactly call it going back.

I LOVE London. This city is truly amazing. But countryside is fine too...a bit different than I thought it would be but it's good too. England is not only London.

But damn it, London is the sex.

yeah, since the explosions 10 years ago the city has changed amazing, new shopping centers, new gardens, fantastic new buildings (Urbis, Beetham Etc) I do love manchester, and I love how big it is getting, and the different sides to it, from the gay village to the shopping center to the locks.

There is Good Folks in Manchester And London.

In both
there is a few nasty ones,
like any city has.

The MediaGuardian group
set up a Manchester channel on Sky TV.
They have their own local news team.

My English exchange is in Manchester University, I should be going to see him very soon.
I've heard about Manchester, it seems fresh, with loads of young people and nice to live in.

I like London in small doses. The city itself is amazing but some people are always in such a hurry and can be rude and miserable (But I'm sure you get people like that in EVERY city! haha)

Im moving 40 minutes outside of London in September, so the real test of how much I like london will come into play then as I will be spending a lot of time in the capital.

I don't like London, but I aint gonna diss it - cos obviously it's a give-or-take city. You either like it or don't - and I don't, and probably in the minority.

London I suspect is great.
I'm 16 and have never been.
I just love all the buildings and the bustle of everything, for you Londoner's noise must be normal.

See, I'm from the North (Near Durham/Newcastle) and its so much more quiet. My town is like 50% fields and hills, and don't get me wrong, I love my town because I think thats what people miss in London. My town is like a horse-shoe shape. So, if I'm at the Headland, I can see Seaton Carew, vice versa. There's a massive golf course and big sand dune hills, where when you stand at the top you can see my whole town. I just love things like that, and you don't get that peacefullness and calmness in London, or I wouldn't think you do.

Very true, that's what I love about Manchester, it has its big city center like london... but a little further out and there are hills everywhere, there is one hill near my work and you can see from where you are all up to the city center... which is about an hour drive away, its huge.
