AOL do it again


Why does this get my goat so much? I'm sorry not everyone lives in a 'cool' place. Living in 'cool' places normally means everything's more expensive and nobody talks to you. Besides, how do you define 'cool'? I suppose 'cool' places, in Britain at least, normally means London, Glasgow or Manchester. I doubt if you'd find anyone in New York who'd say "Hmm, this place isn't interesting enough for me, I'm off to Manchester!"
I can recommend the National Media Museum, by the way.
Edit: I'd like to point out, of course, that I'm immensely cool.

I'm heading up north in a couple of weeks and looking for places to go might tick a few of those off - AOL missed Southend of the list though - The World's Longest Pier at a mile and a third...

If you like art, Yorkshire Sculpture Park's worth a look on a nice day. I think it's free too, it's a couple of years since I last went so may be wrong.
And if you have kids Magna's pretty good, even if they're not interested in science the building it's in - a disused steel mill - is rather awe-inspiring.

I dunno. I live in the hap-hap-happening metropolis of Denver and find the opportunity to make explosions in Rotherham rather exciting... off to buy my ticket right now.
