Croydon to become a City... Europes biggest Town is going for City Status ... So where should the Cathedral be built.. and who for Bishop I wonder if it will secede from London. ?
Didnt realise the UK was going this bad... now offering jobs with Zero pay... See how the business goes and maybe pay the successful applicant in a few months time. Office PA to MD... Good luck with this one.

Reading is also in the running to become a city in 2012... the birthplace of the Duchess of Cambridge, and apparently the favourite to get that status.

I was listening to him on ABC radio, and he mentioned that a one week internship at Vogue (?) in New York sold for $45,000 . . . the world's gone ****ing nuts.

Croydon applies every time a new cityship is offered.
Sadly as a student I used to live in Croydon and there was always a great hype about this and Croydon was always turned down.
( to be a city, a place needs a uni or a cathedral OR to be granted it which is reasonably unusual)
