You have to get the bus for 5 minutes to Guernsey before you can catch the tube. These people are just taking the piss.

This thread is one of my favourites ever. I could tell you LOTS of stuff about Birmingham, but everyone else has been so helpful, I'm not sure if I need to...
no
i like to no what every one think the more the better so what can you tell me about it??
i like living there
you can get to anywhere as its the centre of the country, great music scene, biggest shopping centre in europe (stupidly big), JRRRRRRR TOlkien came from brum.
SHIT LOADS OF BARS.
The sunflower lounge.
NEC for car shows and crufts.
Isn't the biggest shopping centre
in Europe Bluewater?
not any more, I don't think
the Bullring is massive, but actually quite nice.
I used to work in the Sunflower Lounge, it's fun.
Their top football player is also some kind of superero

if I must...
no, Birmingham is not near London. You cannot get a tube from Birmingham to London. You can get a train which takes two hours.
Birmingham is ACE. It has a bad reputation as in the 1980s it was hit very hard by unemployment, and was crap. A lot of money has been put into regeneration since 1990, and it is now beautiful and nice.
Although it is Britain's second biggest city in terms of population, the city centre is relatively small, so you'll see the same people around at gigs and stuff which is nice.
Gig venues, big: Academy, or the Civic in Wolverhampton (20 mins away by train)
Gig venues, small: The Flapper and Firkin in the city centre and The Jug of Ale in Moseley are the best.
Clubs: Snobs nightclub is legendary. The music goes in phases of goodness and crapness, but at 50p a shot, who's complaining? Also, club nights at the Sanctuary or the Custard Factory/Medicine Bar are fun, club nights at the Academy are generally a bit wank.
Oh, and Wishpig was joking. GeoLOLgraphy.
Slappers and Mirkins
Is a better venue though. Can get a bit hairy at times though.
But those Burmese people
can get a bit rowdy after watching Brum. They also have bird flu.
people realise i was joking, right?
lol
u soooo werent joking. jade goody in disguise!!
Don't worry, i DID
Hence my slightly sarcastic reply. As for everyone else, they probably didn't. They're still trying to get the Guernsey Express to Barnsley.
Birmingham also have their own monarchy

you look beautiful.
yeah, thanks bamos.
don't you find it hard being surrounded by idiots all the time?
sigh.
they should create a club for people like us. and call it something like "smensa". that'd be good.
They should
We could have badges and everything. And NO STUPIDS.
birmingham sounds
good and my sister said to me that any time i whant to stay in her house /flat i can when she moves and i was think if i go to her flat a good lot of times might get to no people over there and live there myself for a well not to sure but i would love it im sure.
what area is she moving to?
it will most likely be a house, unless she's living in one of those super-posh luxury things. I miss houses...
im not sure were abouts i well have to ask her
yeah do it
come to brum and get wrecked.
yea
i whant to i whant to go somewere different
can i be in your group
like please.
I lived in Brum for a year and I can tell you that
it's pretty damn spam! Snobs is the bestest club I've ever been too, but the Academy isn't much cop in my opinion.
It's also pretty good for shops. You should check out the Oasis, it's like an underground labyrinth of rock shops and boutiques - not too dissimilar to camden market possibly.
and if you go to 1996 you can go watch Gladiators at the NIA.
You can read me like a book Mr Judge
'Spam' has no meaning at all
but when combined with 'pretty' and 'damn' it takes on a meaning that trenscends the good/bad divide.
so yes,
it means something is good
Oh!
You mean it's totally farmyard. Yeah, I'm with you now
Are you jive talking now?
you know what I mean
ooh
I might be coming to that! I'm pretty sure you'll me someone I recognise dsrBaker, even though I don't think I know you.
the truth about brum...
