I WAS ORIGINALLY FROM BRADFORD & BELIEVE ME I DEFINATLEY KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL, ITS A COMPLETE DUMP!! THAT'S WHY I NOW LIVE IN THE SOUTH OF ENGLAND!! :) :) |
Re: Cairns 'v' Bradford West Yorkshire.!!
Sadly, we still live in Bradford too (That is until we get our Visa's granted) :) To be fair, they are tryin to spruce the city centre up, but at the end of the day you can't polish a turd can you. Having grown up here and seen the steady decline of a once beautiful city, I won't be sad to see the back of it.

I think a lot of people are sad to see the demise of some of the tradtitional towns...like I say, I was in Rotherham today and you could really see that there had been real money there once. |

Did they ever find a new investor for the building work they were doing on Broadway?. |
Re: Cairns 'v' Bradford West Yorkshire.!!
Ah, Saffron Drive...They've still got the gun turrets there since you left Wendy. I read in the Telegraph & Argus (local rag) that vandals broke into someones house on that road and decorated it :)
