manchester
A dreary rain sodden swamp with delusions of grandeur. Amongst its highlights are a sprawling urban vista devoid of life and character, compulsary sheep shagging and yobbo bands like Oasis who spend all their time snorting coke and thus haven't turned out a good album in 10 years. Its people get off on belittling its near neighbour Liverpool as crime ridden and poor, even though it has higher crime and sky high poverty itself. When not endlessly telling itself it is "world famous" (though for what remains a mystery to most) its people attend matches at its premier league football club Manchester Utd - where ticket prices are set to double due to their greedy avaristic new owner, who they entirely deserve for being a bunch of glory seeking gormless twats. Famous Manchunians have included the Beegees, Reg Holdsworth and the worlds worst serial killer, Harold Shipman.
