Well, after stalking the entire thread, it seems you two are the closest to where I live (Nottingham). It's strange, because last time there was a thread like this there were two people about 20 minutes from me.albear said:Derby, UK (doing my placement year for my Uni course)
(op - my brothers at uclan, 1st year, architecture i think)
What a coincidence! That happens to be roughly where I go to school. I wonder if we've met before...J03bot said:You don't want to do that, it's a hole. Though as it happens it's my hole. When I'm not being a student, anyway.fire-exit-man said:Meh, not bad I guess, thank you =). It's pretty expensive here though (housing wise) so me and the missus are probably gonna be moving back to Peterborough.
EDIT: I just did a profile/location search for Nottingham and the only username I recognise is Daystar Clarion.
I'm at the uni too so it's weird to think me and albear could well have passed one another several times already.
not likely, no. same country thoughsheogoraththemad said:the netherlands, friesland, wolvega, I don't expect anyone near me

I suppose it's subjecting though. I grew up here and "cut my teeth" going out, so I always found plenty of stuff to do as a teenager, though mostly revolving around drugs and drinking and getting up to mischief with a small group of friends.
The town itself is probably more interesting for visitors than residents. It's an OK place to visit but not a nice place to live, since it's pretty scummy and debauchery gets pretty boring after a few years.
Since I've moved back here 4 years ago (after living in Canterbury for about 7 years), I hardly "go out" at all, instead I just keep to myself in my quite village, which is a few miles away from the town.
Nowadays I probably see less of Blackpool than some Scottish tourists.
Blackpools gone down the shitters as of late, although they are redoing the centre, its alright for a night out as long as you watch out for the hordes of skinheads...
