I live in a great part of Manchester. I have Lancashire cricket ground nearby, Chorlton with loads of bars and restaurants, the city centre not far with loads of music venues and other stuff. The places you name are pretty dull in comparison. In my opinion. Nice for a day out maybe. Trip on the river or whatever.
Ahhh Chorlton... used to live there.
Chorlton is a place to visit - not to live. You seem to have a proper chip on your shoulder.
Bet your granola fuelled , Lala filled mom jeans are an uplifting site to behold on a fine sunny seaside afternoonExcuse me, what have you got against granola and mom jeansboth are a staple of mine.
You trouser shaming cerealist. Down with you
The Wheelies were all pretty cool tho
If Chorlton has a load of bars and restaurants why why would you not want to live in that area? I'd have thought that most visitors to Manchester would head to the city centre for the museums, theatres and nightlife that the city centre has to offer. Some experts say Chorlton is the second most desirable place to live in Manchester.
I used to live there. I became irritated by it. If you knew it you would know why. It's walking distance for me.
If that's the case then surely it's you who has a chip on your shoulder.. And it seems your opinion goes against the grain of the experts. No surprise there then.
What? Which experts? Looking for a fight as usual.
Look it up.
You do like that ridiculous and inaccurate word. It seems a bizarre reason for not liking a city. Manchester is a vibrant and multi-cultural city with a great centre and many lovely suburbs.
Too many bloody schweffs, that's what irritated me.
I think schweff is very much the wrong term for them.
It's a made up word.
I think it coins that type of person particularly well.
I love it. I have been here in Bristol since 1972
you weren't in Chorlton then. Very few Mancs in Chorlton these days.
Perhaps you just didn’t fit in. I don’t identify with any of your reasons, total nonsense, but your opinion.
But where would you live? Agree about Liverpool but couldn't live there. Off there in June to see the Pet Shop Boys.
Well just for the record and knowing you live there, I've never been to Birmingham apart from for football when it's always been straight in and straight out so I don't know the City at all. Same with Bristol. I think it would be unfair to compare the three i've mentioned with the likes of York and Chester which are much smaller and the city centres are based pretty much solely on tourism. I love going to London and doing all the touristy stuff too.
just one other point to add is that it's stating the obvious that most residents live in the suburbs of the big cities and having a good knowledge of all those areas is no easy task when it comes to deciding as an outsider where to live. Not sure, i would ever want to live in a city centre.
I was just thinking about city centres I'd actually live in and reckon Manchester just about fits the bill as theres only me and the wife. Then again where would the grandkids play when they visited. Sod it we'll move to Spain they can play in the pool
I never said they were mancs that I found annoying did I?
I had the shits for hours after eating at the Horse & Jockey, and it wasn't nice.
Higher up the thread it was the cocky Mancs you didnt like about Manchester.
.Kingbee mate . . . not been in for a few years but think it's still going.
Must of been similar time to me, curly lived in the apartment below us, Trevor was our go too
H & J the wrong pub to patronise in CG
Nope.
That's it!
Not so sure NY is in the UK.
