Warrington will win no beauty prizes but it does have some nice parts. If you like city life you have two world famous cities on your doorstep. We are ideally positioned for North Wales, Peak District, Lake District, North Yorkshire, Trough of Bowland and Shropshire and even more beautiful places a little further afield….and that’s before you think about travelling to Europe.
Personally I think living in this part of the world is magnificent, much more to enjoy than a few beaches and some pretty cities miles away from each other…..and then there’s all the animals that want to kill you.'"
I personally think the UK is a hole and isn't helped by terrible, unpredictable weather, though we're probably veering into a non-rugby related debate at this point..
It's why I try to spend as much time as I can anywhere but here...
