Cool stuff generator !

Yeah, When I get my Degree I hope to uproot to Canada and Teach English. England is a shit hole, America has too many trigger happy ass bandits, at least Canadians know how to control their licensed guns.

The rest of the world is Teh Sucks.

I refer to everywhere but Manchester- which is undergoing fantastic transofrmation, Leeds is dire- but they are getting (proposed) some fantastic new developments built. :D

Liverpool, Geezus, I was unfortunate to be invited on a night out in that city last year- never again. Birmingham is disgusting, I thought the scouse train station was bad until I arrived at New Street.

London, well, I only saw westminster when I was there really, wasn't too bad.

Newcastle is just leeds with geordies. The lakes offers at least an escape from the monstrosity of the rest of the country.

Manchester on the other hand, is brilliant, the people are fantastic, the city centre is awesome, the attractions are superb, indulge me 200AD, why on Earth do you despise it so much, I do hope jealousy is not a factor.

Good luck! You're off to greener pastures. :)

I'm planning on moving to Canada myself, hopefully soon. Don't you just hate it when actors become presidents.

What didn't you like? I've always found Liverpool to be an excellent night out, but I have to admit that for me, that city is ruined by its terrible litter problem.

Agreed.
Leeds is dire- but they are getting (proposed) some fantastic new developments built.
Leeds is becoming too upmarket for my tastes, its turning into a pseudo-southern city. I get the feeling that soon they'll bar the likes of me from the whole town for being too scruffy and unruly and lowering the tone of the place.

Never tried Newcastle, but I have it on good authority that the female night-time population has the highest incidence of going commando of all UK cities.

Liverpool is all too concentrated in one area for me- the nightlife I mean, the club scene. Seems like its all in a couple of alley ways, I prefer Manchester, tonnes more places to go, spread all over the city centre. But I suppose crawling is easier in Liverpool with everything being in the same place.

The clubs themselves arent bad, once you're in, I suppose.

Canada is nice. from may to september. then you might as well just hibernate. Why do you think half of Montreal is underground? Beacuse it's cold enought to freeze your breath as it comes out of your mouth outside!

Good luck Generator, I'm currently making the effort of exhausting the list of reasons why I'd want to stay in Canada's lesser, southern neighbor. While I don't plan on moving to the great frosty north (despite the fact that I could easily thrive there), I'm certain I won't miss much about the country I'm currently in.

I am still contemplating my destination for ex-patriation. Sweden holds an obvious favor for me, as I pine for the fjords of the Motherland, on the majestic shore of the Gulf of Bothnia, but Japan and Luxembourg are also contenders. Russia as well, if it is economically feasible.

Frankly, I fear that the parts of America that I don't like are infectious, and Canada is too close for comfort.
