Leeds

[.....!]

Not been there since the '90's and some of my mates were students there. It was pretty good back then, The Orbit was one of my all time favourite nights out.

I don't know many people and not many people ever mention The Orbit. One of the best clubs ever. Utter thumping heavy techno. No dress code whatsoever. All sorts of people there. People headbanging over the stairs up to the DJ booth. I saw Jeff Mills, Westbam, Dave Clarke amongst others there. Shame it closed at 2am and it's a shame it closed for good. Good times....

My only experience of Leeds was seeing a white 19 year old pale white young male with a giant blonde afro.

The city, not the club

Thoughts? Praise? Concerns? Warnings? Suggestions? Resentments? Anecdotes? Commiserations?

I might be moving there in a few months

I went to school with someone called Mick Carney

You can see them here too mate.

Usually clad head to toe in North Face, doing wheelies outside any chippy in the city

ha never so extreme though. I must admit in all my years i didn't expect the perm to come back in style on Scallies.

It's actually a decent city.

It's similar to Liverpool but you don't get the average person being as friendly as scousers.

Some class hidden bars round call lane etc and you get loads of young professionals pouring into the pubs after work. Quite a few big name companies there tool.

What makes you hate Liverpool that much that you'd compare us to that cesspit Leeds? I wouldn't leave a dog (with rabies) to die in the streets of that dung heep of a city. There's lots of great places in Yorkshire but Leeds isnt one of them.

Look mate I don't know if your ex wife / girlfriend moved to be with another lad in Leeds, but to say it's a cesspit is wrong.

Nothing like that mate. Just my experience of Leeds. Never been to a city I hated more in my life, and I've travelled a fair bit.

I went like 8 years ago and it was a dive, it's massively improved since then.

A thread where people are sl*gging something off? I'll have a slice of that please good sir.

I love moaning like fk as it distracts me from my pitiful life of misery and disappointment.

It wasn't just the city itself but the inhabitants, maybe I've just had bad luck when I've been but I've never encounterd more rude and ignorant people in my life then Leeds. As I've said I travel a fair bit over the world so its not like im just picking on Leeds, imo it really is the worst city I've ever been to.

Isn't that pretty much the main reason people use the internet?
