Heartland

I'm heading north to see some universities, end of october/start of november.

I'm turning up in manchester on tuesday 30th, got nothing planned for wednesday, taking a quick march up to Durham on Thursday and then into Leeds on the friday.

I might end up spending the wednesday in Leeds or Manchester, depending on how I feel.

What's the advice on sleeping quaters? Is a youth hostel the order of the day? I'm happy to have a drink with anyone thats about.

I need help seeking out the cities best record shops, but also, friday night in Leeds! What kind of goffik stuffs goes down in that town?

leeds and goffick... ummm....

In related news, I'm looking at Liverpool tomorrow and Leicester next week. Although at the moment, Glasgow's top of my list (sorry Keef), I'm open to suggestions on whether either of them are good choices, and if so, what the city life is like.

Sorry Maisey, I'll give you back your thread soon.

i was at liverpool! sometime ago, natch. but i loved it. manc is only a stone's throw away from there, too

If Travel Lodge is doing a saver night then go for it. The Leeds Vicar Lane one was lovely

They're *all* a stone's throw from one another! Silly UK kiddies!
