    And Bradford is on there? The only way Bradford could make that list in 12th would be if we only had 11 cities in the country... Bradford?!!?? Jesus.

        I've worked in Bristol before myself. The best bit I remember was in the rear view mirror.

          Have you ever been to Easton? No thought not.

            Yes. I got lost, everything looked the same.

              I've been to all and by far the worst is Bradford. Amazingly so, as not that long ago it was a Jewel in the crown of the North. And yes it is worse than Luton, where I've also been, which never had the distinction of ever being nice in the first place.

                  Totally agree - worked there for over 2 years until July this year. What a tulip hole. Never seen a place that has so much litter. My car was broken into and "keyed" twice in broad daylight. I saw a "youth" on a quad bike one day driving past a line of cars and smashing each window with a hammer! Was so glad to get away from the place.

                    Holy crap Dodgy! I agree with you again.

                    I've visited all the listed cities (worked in most of 'em) and found plenty to like and few things I didn't in all of 'em.

                      Damn, there seems to be a lot of rednecks on this forum :-)
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
