Re: Never thought l would ever say this but
Current holder of UK City of Culture is Hull. The previous was Londonderry. I don't know what the threshold is for carrying the crown but having visited both then it must be extremely low as both Hull and Londonderry are crap holes.

Re: Swansea in the running for City of Culture
Isn't "City of Culture" basically "Shithole of the Year"?

Re: Never thought l would ever say this but
We'll probably never hear the end of it, but yeah, good luck to Swansea.

There’s a lot going on in Swansea at the moment - redevelopment of the High Street, SA1, etcetc.
It was falling apart but progress is being made.
Pity about the population. That will never develop.

Good to know about the redevelopment.
All joking and jibes about the place aside, I was genuinely shocked when I had reason to visit a few months ago.
So run down and so widespread the decay.
