I’d be a terrible Geordie if I didn’t say Newcastle. Great restaurants, nightlife and shops. Plenty of history, great museums and art galleries and it’s only a short journey to the amazing beaches and the Northumberland coastline. |

York is great. I used to go there most Saturday nights for the live music scene. I really should make the effort more.
I quite liked to wander around on a Saturday afternoon, too. |

Manchester!! It’s got everything you want and need.
I also like to visit Edinburgh and York. Great nights out, plus a lot of history.
Honourable mention to Newcastle for a BOUNCING night out but not been in ages.
Sheffield is a nice friendly city too. |

"I love my home Liverpool, the city is brilliant.
I’ve not been to lots of others, but would love to visit new places "
It is a great night out (that’s coming from a Manc too) and the women there are top class and a real laugh. |

Does it have to be in the UK btw? As I’d live in Berlin tomorrow if I could.
Belgrade is very interesting, Novi Sad is great.
San Sebastián is even better than you think it’s going to be before you get there.
Not been to Prague but I really want to go. |

Yes especially when they are as curvy and womanly as yourself. You look fantastic in your photos if you don’t mind me saying. |

In the west. |
It's a long time since I visited any English city. Because of that I will keep it local:
Glasgow for shopping and cocktails
Edinburgh because of the culture and it's the world's capital city
Inverness because it is small, compact and pretty laid back |

"Chester is a small city that is well worth a visit. 
Ahh yes, Chester is lovely for daytime stuff. I love a walk around the city walls. Not a fan of the nightlife personally though. "
It’s pretty crap |

That must have been late night closing on a Saturday. |

My current location was voted top 3 cities in the world. Voted by who? - don’t ask questions.
If I had to choose it would be Edinburgh as they have iron bru on tap |

Have to agree, it's a very welcoming and friendly place, have many good memories of going up to visit family at half term when I was young. Need to plan a visit as it's been too long  |

"Whichever one is smallest, furthest from the others and closest to mountains.
Mr
Wells. Anything bigger than that is likely to be a festering cess pit."
Can't say I've been but its a bit far from mountains though I like your thinking.
St Davids is probably my favourite of all the cities I've visited and a whole lot smaller even than Wells.

I had forgotten St Davids when I proffered Wells as the smallest city which came into my mind.
Ironically, I have never been to Wells but have been to St Davids several times. Usually I have camped nearby enduring horizontal rain but sometimes the area can be paradise.
As you might gather from my 'cess pit' comment, I am not a love of cities in general. Two I have liked were Vancouver and Auckland, both I found very civilised places to visit and could happily live in either.
Fleetingly visited Chester and Durham without disappointment or parking drama.
Edinburgh, so-so, also easy to get into by bus (star attraction for me RY Britannia) from a good campsite. Also liked Glasgow for the motorway which goes right through the place without having to stop there!
However St Davids I could drive to and park with no problems whatsoever. Good choice. |

"None of them.
Give me the countryside all day."
I'm with you there, especially if the coast is included.
As far as London goes, Dr Johnson must have had me in mind when he made his famous pronouncement. |

"London for me "
I used to love London and all the wonderful stuff you can do, restaurants, theatres etc but I think a lot has changed and I would only contemplate the odd visit these days, not that I could really afford to live there now - certainly not in any area I would like to. |

I like to visit but wouldn't want to live there either |

Have you been to Edinburgh recently? It’s a dive! Roadworks everywhere, potholes turned into craters, roads are not safe! |

"Over 100 comments and not one for Belfast haha I'm shocked.
It's the English we are talking about lol.
Don't worry fellas Belfast has been mentioned. "
I had a couple of lovely visits there. Some of the new restaurants and pubs/bars are great. Lots to enjoy and also other interesting places to visit that are a short drive away. |

I like Durham for a nice weekend visit. There are some charming parts to it. |

I'm obviously biased, but I adore London. If you want a city with absolutely everything, it's hard to beat.
But we're lucky to have so many great cities: also love Edinburgh, Bristol, York and Manchester. Never been to Liverpool or Newcastle so they're high on my list! |

Hmmmm I’d say my favourites are Newcastle. London and Manchester. All for different reasons. Newcastle because its just fun and the people are so cool. Manchester has the best pussy. London is best for things to do. |
