    Second City

    I am just looking at some random sites here so correct me if I am wrong:
    http://www.ukcities.co.uk/populations/
    http://www.lovemytown.co.uk/Populations/TownsTable1.htm
    http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch...ion/cities.htm

    So just as you say Bristol is "a nice little place" I could say Manchester is a "dirty little place". Never would have guessed Bradford and Sheffield are bigger than Manchester. Learn something new everyday eh? Unless you are RRH of course, in which case you know everything already. Apart from how to spell provincial of course

    Yes Bradford and Sheffield are bigger cities than Manchester..... Firstly, can someone other than me put this idiot right as I'll be discredited no doubt.


    Secondly what is Englands 2nd City?

        P.S your population information was taken from the 2001 census, nice to see you are using some good up to date information.....do you work for new labour?

              Don't you have to earn the right to say something like that, by way of not being a nonce for at least 70% of the time?

              And even then, I'd advise using the term 'foo - as in - "I ain't gettin on no damn plane, 'foo".

              If I were you HRH, I'd be building my tank out of the items available to you in your parent's house right now.

                  Ah. Another one of HRH/RRH's favourite topics.

                  Talk about a one trick pony.

                    I'm voting for Birmingham, having been born about 20 miles from the place.
                    But I can't stand it really, I'm a small-town gal myself - unfortunatly I find myself living and working in one of the biggest cities in Scotland
                    .........sighhhhhh
