I went through it onceListen to you all talking about Milton Keynes like it has too many roundabouts and none of you have actually been to St Helens.
HAHAHAHAHA
(don't go to St Helens)
I went through it once
In some ways yes, the emotional scars will never heal. I wake up in a sweat reliving the experience quite oftenAre you still there?
NEVER it is a horrendous abomination xIs Swindon a city? What’s with that fucking stupid roundabout of death
Is it hailing a taxi?

Gloucestershire or Wiltshire side?As my nearest big town, I learnt to drive in Swindon I see they didn’t even apply to become a city this time, it must be one of the biggest towns left - awful place though! Nothing but grey as far as the eye can see.

Come to Bristol Pride. We've gotThey're the stairs up to the theatre (which is considered less of an attraction than the stairs apparently )
Sadly I see that Swindon Pride (last year headlined by Veronica Green) has been replaced by a Pride Picnic due to lack of funding this year
Definitely will be! Weirdly when I was growing up, Swindon actually inexplicably had 3 gay clubs and a gay bar - there's nothing of the sort (possibly in all of Wiltshire) now.Come to Bristol Pride. We've got

I remember going to a pub there about 11/12 years ago I guess - The Mail Coach? Quite close to the rail station. Is that closed, or no longer gay?Definitely will be!

Now a sports bar! Pink Rooms which was the biggest gay club when I was a teenager is now a (straight) strip clubI remember going to a pub there about 11/12 years ago I guess - The Mail Coach? Quite close to the rail station. Is that closed, or no longer gay?
More than Cheltenham and Gloucester COMBINEDDefinitely will be! Weirdly when I was growing up, Swindon actually inexplicably had 3 gay clubs and a gay bar - there's nothing of the sort (possibly in all of Wiltshire) now.
Yeah I think so, unless I’m missing something else. The saving grace of this area is our transport links though, Bristol is only about 30 minutes down the M4, London about 50 minutes by train.Sports Bar? Completely adding insult to injury.
Would you really have to go to Bristol/Bath (or perhaps Oxford or Reading?) for a gay club now?
YAY!She's granted EIGHT new cities, including COLCHESTER
I've got quite happy memories of quite a grotty one in Cheltenham - we're talking about 25 years ago. I don't remember what it was called, or where it was - I think it may have been somewhere on that grim stretch of High St before it leads into the nicer shopping area, from trips back to Cheltenham since. That area is all fast food joints, nail bars and charity shops now. It was a pub upstairs and more of a small club downstairs. Only went there once, but it was quite a successful outing. And they didn't happen THAT much for those to stand outMore than Cheltenham and Gloucester COMBINED

I think it was more a case of having lowered the quality control bar as I was out of townHA oh that would have been EXS site of NO successful outings for me
Bangor (NI) is definitely not a city. Most people here are AGOG and pretty amused by this. Do not book a city break there. You just need an afternoon for an ice cream and a stroll along the seafront and marina.

I second this (it’s my home town). Though I’d say Skelmersdale is far worse for roundabouts
