Gloom lifts on Manchester housing Market?

[snaw]

Manchester must have less tourists than London, though?

I can't imagine why ...

Anyway, the tourists stick to the bits in the middle, it's a massive fcuking city where you can have a great time and not have to deal with any tourists, ever. In fact I go out of my way to avoid them.

Strangely enough I was in Leicester Sq on the weekend for the first time in over a year and remembered why I avoid that area!

If it was not for Manchester United nobody abroad would know such city exists...

Well that was true until Saint Sven arrived to put the City on the map.

At least back up your point with an authoritative source - MTV ffs

too true in my experience most Londoners aren't even British...

That's not true.

Only a third of Londoners are not British.

You are mixing up colour with nationality.

Tsk! silly me again, mixing up the fact that the people serving in nearly every shop I go in speak with a heavy eastern European accent and their colour.

I think his problem is that he's caught a train to king's cross one or two times, and maybe wandered around the touristy bits and thinks that he's seen London and never actually visited or is even aware of all the other, nicer/more affluent, parts of the city.

Equally it has more of everything than any other city in Britain ... best looking/dressed women.

Can't agree with that, there's many a Pauline Quirke lookalike in London

Why would you work in a shop when you can get dole money?

As well as the above, I would guess that maybe he lives in the WA16 postcode and is 'bigging it up'.
