Could be worse though. You might have had to go to Grimsby.

I last went to Grimsby about 30 years ago. I don't recall it being particularly
horrid.


It's the combination of the biting see breeze direct from Scandanavia,
the smell of rotting fish (though not from Scandanavia), and the added
bonus of the entire contents of just about every sewer in the Midlands or
Yorkshire emptying into the Humber to wash ashore at Cleethorpes.

Just take the highway code and burn half of it. Then remove all respect for other road users.

It's in Birmingham, what do you expect?

Dunno. never been there before, so I didn't expect anything.

Some of Birmingham is very nice. My wife is from Bournville and my brother
was a student there, living in a number of West and South West Birmingham
locations, all pleasant enough.
