Sounds like the bloke looked up a few facts on the internet, travelled up on the train from London to Leeds and then from Leeds to Saltaire, not getting as far as Bradford.
I'm certainly not crabbing Saltaire and I'm sure he had a nice day going to one art galley, followed by decent beer and conversation in one pub and then a really good curry.
But, as an exposition on Bradford's many visitor-attractions ... well the article's depth and content just reinforces my impression of the stereotype metrosexuals who write and read the Guardian.
Lightweight.
