err Rob Lowe . Yes, got him now, Spoilt Brat Pack "actor" famous in the 80's.
Well they say theres no such thing as bad publicity!

He's wrong, its shithole.

Is Winnipeg a colder more depressing version of a council estate in Hull?

I've never been to Hull.

I've been there a lot as my son plays hockey in the UK. Yep - It's a hovel

Nearly as bad as Whitley Bay.....

And each of the following decades assuming one has heard of the Austin Powers movies as well as TV's West Wing and now Californication.

Not that I'm a fan, but he's been pretty active and probably a lot more in demand than some of the other Brat Packers.

Nope...that will be Cold lake Alberta

Mmm, no definately not!

Top of the bill actor, up there with the likes of Mike Myers, David Duchovny and Martin Sheen .

Martin Sheen is great. You're not thinking of Charlie are you?

And DD...should have got an oscar for The Red Shoe Diaries.

You don't know what your missing, Winnipeg is a great city to live in.

I used to like Whitley Bay for a girls weekend away

+1 Winnipeg scares me and I only go when forced by work/medical appointments etc, otherwise I stay clear. However, my OH tells me I am being unfair and that there are many nice places and things to do and see there. He works in the city. I am always glad to leave it behind in the rear view mirror.
