I quite like London, have some friends there and tend to go there at least once a month, BUT it also seems overcrowded and violent. I have never been to Leeds but it just seems like a nice place to go...
So, any advise anyone?
THANKS!!!

yes, that scares me... being a Mum I have my baby's safety to consider... Some would say - why don't I stay in Devon then, but I just cannot stay here any longer. yes, it is safe. But it is also DEAD!andymackem wrote:
There are problems with London: it is expensive, and like any big city there is the occasional problem of crime and general unpleasantness.
but London is only 2,5 hours away.... Rightly or wrongly, London has the biggest range of venues for all types of music (from the Royal Opera House onwards). If a band of any size is playing the UK, they will come to London. They might also go to Leeds, but they will definitely come to London.
it is constantly changing though. 2 years ago there weren't any budget airlines between the UK and Poland, now you have 5 or 6...You have far better onward connections with the UK and with the rest of Europe: London is the hub of our road and rail network, and the home of the budget airline. Leeds, for all its charms, cannot offer the same range of destinations.
Brixham (Torbay) in Devon. But I know Tiverton very well - used to work for Reuters there (Tiverton Business Park) ... That job made me realise that I could not face being an admin person for the rest of my life... And that was the reason I'm now back at Uni...You will miss the countryside, especially coming from the West Country (which bit? I used to live in Tiverton, Devon, which was dull),

I guess so. After last night I'm feeling particularly vunerable, so we'll leave it as is, eh..?FFS Dave wrote:Have a guess.Norman Hunter wrote:Neanderthals? Where do you get these brushes that you car tar such a large majority with?![]()
All's fair in love and war and footy.
Nice one. And at LMU? (ex-City Site boy) Definately meet you in The Skyrack, now. And The Oak. Maybe Woodies and the Three Horeshoes. But probably not The Arc or Box.Delilah wrote: yes...I think I'll go for Leeds! I like trying new things!!! Thanks everybody for your advice!!!![]()

Are either of those that big thing near the cinema? Looked scary as I drove past ages ago.Norman Hunter wrote: [But probably not The Arc or Box.

I'm surprised I've never seen you in Salvo's Dave.
