Re: London is a shite hole
London is an interesting place, that is for sure.
It is tatty and scruffy on the edges, but there is a wonderful heritage that just can't be replicated in any other City in England.
I know we like to think Manchester is a wonderful place, and it is, but it really does pale into insignificance when you have a look around London.
Go there, and have a mooch about. Manchester just does not compare.
London really does have everything. Manchester, I am sorry to say, does not!
And before you ask, I live in Manchester, and I used to live 'down there'.
London has it's shortcomings, but it is a great place to live.
