Quote: splodge1971 "I used to work for a surrey based consultancy company; and worked for a while on a client site in leeds; and all they surrey guys used to say similar things about leeds; i.e. its like taking a step back in time to the 70s; etc. Taking a cheap shot at whitehaven is ridiculous for someone who lives in leeds; hardly compares to seacroft, kirkstall, or beeston does it!? Seriously though; i'd rather be somewhere slightly old fashioned rather than a city where it isn't safe to walk the streets at night.'"
That's because it's never dark on the West Cumbrian coast - the green glow coming off the locals creates a permanent daylight.
