The Hallucinating Goose Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I don't know how this will work with multiple people. Me and my mate play a game where we name two cities and the other person says which they'd prefer to live in. The preferred choice is then put up against another place until one is found that cannot be outdone. So I will start off. Someone say which they'd prefer to live in and then offer that choice against another city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hallucinating Goose Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Rome. Salisbury is a lovely place with some outstanding architecture but is just too small, once you've done everything in a day what do you do then? Rome just has far more to see and do, far better atmosphere, generally much more exciting place. Right, seen as this is a RL forum, Rome or Sydney?

Living by the lake in Geneva is ridiculously expensive, and if you want a decent pub lunch you have to use your passport and drive 10 minutes across into France. You can get a lot of bang for your buck living by Pennington flash, the lake near Leigh. Some nice pubs too.

(well, Atherton, central Geneva and Meyrin) Higher pay in Geneva more than offset the higher cost of living.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 I was about to say we might make fun of Leigh but it seems a few of us are preferring it to other places then I realised we'd only had Wigan, Geneva and Brighouse to choose from, not the most inspiring selection! Tough decision between Leigh and Toronto but I think Toronto probably just wins it. Toronto or Galway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnM Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Never been to Toronto, but Galway is great. 10.30 pm in a pub in town. Blink 182 lookalike band starts up, just as young woman arrives in pub with toddler in pushchair, despite the immense noise.. After midnight, arrived in other pub with jazz jam session in full swing till ,2 am . A little worse for wear the following day.
