It will be my sisters 19th in April and she wants us both to go on a weekend break together. I love Edinburgh - shes never been, Dublin - would love to go but too expensive, London - go all the time. Any other suggestions and what should we do when we get there, I plan to only spend two days - would prefer it to be in the UK. I just want to show her a fun time and that her older sister is still cool. She is a girly girl, im not but I can pretend whilst there =)
Zac must have found somewhere better than I did during a two-day visit not long ago - sorry Zacs, Glasgow presented itself as dirty, run-down, with every doorway and rubbish bin used as a urinal / vomit bucket. A very small renovated area did not make up for the rest.
Cardiff is very nice, verylively and lots to do and see.
Even although I may come across as biased I have always found Glasgow to one of the most vibrant cities i have ever been.
Surely in every city there are run down areas.
I have visited most major cities in the UK and also Eorope -most recent -although not Europe -Reykjavik(oop apart from a weekend in Edinburgh last weekend whic as always was brilliant)All have had their good points and you only find bad points if youre a crabbit so and so who doesnt know how to enjoy yourself lol
Ive heard Manchester is a particularly brill place for a weekendaway -only been on business but the people were ace and I daresay the nightlife is even better
Brighton is packed with great nightlife, fun bars, great restaurants and superb bistros. It's offers wonderful shopping opportunities and has loads of places to find live music and fun entertainment.
Having travelled extensively throughout the UK during the last twenty years or so I rate Canterbury as my most favourite destination, it is a beautiful, cosmopolitan city, plenty of things to see and do, socially it is brilliant, above all it seemed to me a safe and comfortable city to walk about and pub cruise throughout the evening...........
