"Been to bath. Loved it. Never want to go to Liverpool unless its for a meet  "
Actually there are parts of Liverpool that are gorgeous. But some people's mentalities are stuck in the 80's  |

Aye, but the accent. Not my favourite in all honesty. Met some lovely Liverpudlian people in the past, don't get me wrong. But the accent grates on me, as I am sure the welsh accent grates on other people |

Pretty much everyone from outside the city I'd bet, but Liverpool has 800 years of history, two cathedrals, 8 museums, tonnes of shops, restaurants and bars and a kick ass nightlife  |

If it's a really short break (just a couple of nights), maybe aim for somewhere smaller like a nice market town or old port.
Where I live for example is surprisingly interesting and quite nice, Harwich.
But almost everywhere in the country has these little gems. |

I don't have an accent. I lived in Manchester for 15 years so now I just sound generically northern.
For me the Northern Irish accent grates (no offence to anyone reading!) so I know exactly what you mean. It sounds so harsh to me.
Solution: buy earplugs, visit Liverpool |

Too bloody windy and cold most of the year!
But many a pint of Heavy in The World's End."
See I like cold. I prefer it to hot. Find it easier to warm up than to cool down |

"Bath - some nice hotels, the Roman Baths, the Spa and other things to do"
It's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.
So I moved to Bristol...

Just leaving that there |

Bristol's real nice this time of year. Bath's pretty close too... "
Bath seems to very getting lots of mentions!! Edinburgh too, but I'm a semi-regular visitor to Edinburgh (and London) already, and I think I'd like somewhere new this time |

Although a bit pedantic
You should all be glad it was a nice girl like me who noticed, that could've caused a war  "
It was a fair point.
The devil's in the detail after all...  |

"Edinburgh - loads of history, castle, ghost walks, some great bars, largely friendly people. Great city! "
Oh good as I'm off for a short break there.
Oxford is a lovely city, lots to see and do. I agree with Bath, has a fantastic theatre and the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to. Bristol has great shopping and lots of bars. I really like Bournemouth too, but that's from childhood nostalgia.
Depends what you want from your break I guess. |
