JawD 31 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'll just add I cant stand London like. For the odd weekend, sure if Im taking wor lass to the theatre or something but as a whole I find it unfriendly and unpleasant. Similarly like there are loads of places I'm eager to visit. Next on my list I think will be New York and then somewhere like Calgary as I want to see a lot of Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26192 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I didn't really enjoy Barcelona tbh though the fact that it pissed it down constantly for the three days that I was there probably didn't help. I also couldn't rank Las Vegas up there either, it's a massive holiday resort rather than a great city in my mind. My favourites would have to be NY and London. I initially despised London but that's because I was working there and didn't know anyone else at all. The more time I spent there and the more I got to know people and had time to just walk around the place and get to know the city the more I enjoyed it. NY just has a great vibe about it, again the more I've been there the better it's got. I saw return flights there in January for £286 but just about managed to resist booking a trip. Unfortunately I've got other priorities coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) London is too busy for me, if that makes sense. Then again I guess that goes for most of the major cities. To be honest I've never ventured out of Europe so don't have much to go on but I really liked Malaga a few years ago and part of Paris are obviously wonderful (other parts of it that I went through are dire). Needless to say I love Newcastle and wish I lived nearer so I could visit more often (both for the place and for SJP). I like Norwich, quite a spread out area though. I'd like to live in Bristol one day. I've got Cumbrian blood but never fancied living in Carlisle, and somehow have never set foot in Liverpool or Manchester so don't have an opinion of those two. Lincoln isn't great (there are many bigger towns, never mind cities) but I'm very attached to the place as I had the best years of my life living there so I'd have to say that too.

The Fish 8950 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I think Touristville in the centre of London gives the rest of it a bad name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Abu Dhabi Thought that place is meant to be pretty poor once you get past the beaches and the architecture. Which, thinking about it, is reason enough for many to go there I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWalrus 0 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Florence is class, as is Siena. Can't beat Edinburgh though. I love the place (probably marginally more than Newcastle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17633 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Berlin is supposed to be class. Why though? Do you like Germans? Cos Berlin is full of them. Boring c**ts is my take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the world capital of snobbery and they never disappoint in a display of their skills. They're still gassing on about the Olympics even now. Most of the problems we got eminate from there.

Dr. Richard Kimble 0 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 If I had a time machine I'd go back to Randall & Hopkirk deceased London -- that looked nice. But todays Londoners just never stop talking about themselves and that's a drag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
