Best:

Barbecue. Seriously, ribs are a religion down here.
Memphis in May Barbecue festival coming soon, woohooo!!


Worst:

Roadway design in the downtown area. It' s like no one thought people would actually drive on these streets. It' s just retarded. When I' m going downtown, I park at a friend' s house and catch the bus.

There' s kickass NAMCO Station just up the road that always gets the newest machines in. The place is fuc.king mecca as far as i' m concerned.

The BBC are moving here... slowly... over the next 3 years, creating 10,000 jobs. Property prices are only going to go up.

I' m pretty central and have some of the cities best bars, restaurants and shops within short walking distances. The MEN Arena is a major venue for bands touring the UK and for sporting events.

Manchester and Salford uni' s both have serious labs that i frequent. A couple of the local colleges have taken interest in games development courses for school leavers (16 - 19 yrs) which is something i' ve been involved in for the past year or so. The 3 main colleges in Salford are merging on Aug 1st to create a super college which will be offering more diverse areas of study. There' s a lot of money been thrown about by the government for things like mobile learning (equipping students with PDA' s), software development etc... One of my friends recently started work with a team at the University of Manchester who have recieved a grant for Human Genomes research. Pretty cool shit.

Worst

The fuc.k awful weather. Summer lasts about 4 or 5 days and we don' t get snow during winter. It' s just windy as fuc.k and it pisses down all the time.

The fuc.king Jews and immigrants. Dirty horrible fuc.king gypos. Skanky Polish and Romanian bitches... get the fuc.k off my island!

EDIT: Oh yeah, ...the fuc.king cops. They hate me

Velkommen til forummet. Jeg kom tit i skibby med mit gamle arbejde. De to lægehuse var mine kunder, Jørgen Rose og Tyesen!

Best: Not Crowded, a lot of land, my town has pretty much has just a lot of food places and a Walmart, Its not far from bigger cities that have everything else we might need.

Worst: Weather is really unpredictable. One day it could be 90 degrees, the next it could be 15 with snow. It was pretty much in the 60s from November to February, but then all of a sudden it was around 30 until recently.

Best: Very close to Glasgow, good for work.pubs, clubs, music gigs, etc. Also close to hamilton, so going to visit friends & familly is no problem even though we lost the car last year.

Worst: Pretty full of ned scumbags. Haven' t had much bother in the 4 years we' ve been here though.

The Good - Nice and quiet, by the sea, about the best weather you' ll get in the UK, short distance from France for booze cruises. Great schools (including 11+ grammars) Good food (especially fish) and beer (Shepherd Neame). Shops not your usual chains

The bad - miles and miles away from anywhere with a pulse, closer to Belgium than London. Shopping iffy, cinemas either pokey local 1-screen affairs or horrendously overpriced multiplexes.
