I live in Preston. At school the other day i had this argument, and because of where preston is positioned i just got told Birmingham is a ****hole. i asked the people who said manchester whether they had ever been to brum and they said no.... so how the **** can they make their mind up..... i stood my ground obviously and fought for my city..... i have lived in both cities and can tell you all who might like the life up north then stay away..... its cold and dirty.......birmingham 4ever
