    I was very impressed with Manchester, I'm from Dublin and don't think too much of it, the night life in Manc was incredible, nice people and everything's a walk away from the main train station. London's ok too but not as good. Oh London's where I live now.

    Barcelona.
    I found Paris a bit boring, but I suppose I was 13 or something when I was there, and well looking at art galleries and what not is not very interesting when you are 13
    still not interesting now

    You haven't lived till you've been there, done the shopping, fished on a junk and been jumped at by prawns. :D

    TBH I didnt like New York all that much at all.The subways are impossible to get around if you arent a local,in contrast to London where they are very easy to get around and come every 2 minutes.There is hardly any1 working in the stations to help you-you have the option of either attempting to converse with a ticket machine as to what line to use or try the even harder task of conversing with the few workers who are there,mostly non americans with little english.And then there is the even harder task of asking a local-theyre always in such a hurry that for some reason they refuse to stop and help.
    And I was also pissed off at some of the tourist attractions.It isnt all like it is on the tv travel shows-unless you come early in the morning you arent allowed any higher that the foot of the statue of liberty.:mad:
    Ive heard now the statue is closed to the public not sure if its true tho.

    It's a toss-up between Montreal and Amsterdam for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,244 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Never been to Lost Wages, and have no intention of going, but I have been to Paris. I liked London, New York, Cape Town, Seattle, but I still prefer Toronto, and I think I'll like Montreal when I finally get to visit there one day.

    Because it's the most wonderful city in the world, and a city that's hard to live outside of

    havent been to many places but i love liverpool!(im arsenal fan BTW ;))

    havent a clue why Dublin is in here, lived there for 6 months and frequently go there for gigs and I just don't like it! Everyone is in a rush the whole time, contrary to popular belief there are FAR more knackers there than Limerick.

    There seems to be a bit of snobbery if you are not from Dublin too, drives me mental.

    Paris is OK I guess and London isn't the worst but definitely for getting a laugh with locals and having a great time its Liverpool !!!

    P.S. i think Limerick people are generally the easiest to get on with because we very rarely get offended :D
