Probably be neck and neck until the very last minute and then Nicky Summerbee will come along and kick Coventry's bid into touch.2 bastions of culture there! Should be some contest.
Well maybe, but I was up in Manchester on Wednesday and some parts of that place are beyond shitty. Quite shocling. And also I have never seen so many beggars in my life in one city centre. No word of a lie there was one every 10-15 yards. Never seen anything like it.

So in one thread, you rubbish the city of culture and what it represents and stands for, providing

There 'but for the grace of God' go IOf course worth remembering that life's kicks in the bollocks affect all in differing ways.
Always fascinated me how people get to the point of living on the streets.
Yeah and funnily enough, I don't usually give money to beggars on the street, but have done so twice in the last week.Of course worth remembering that life's kicks in the bollocks affect all in differing ways.
