if all the londoners are so brilliant and clever, they'll be thinking, right there will be opportunity to start up new companies (BBC will slosh some exit money around) lets go for it - or they think, great I take the existing skills and get a promotion cos I have the experience to bring when I move
and if the northerners are so brilliant and clever they'll be thinking good, more jobs and and opportunities for support services
so who's moaning? thick people
[quoteI know Nick Robinson - chief political editor (I know his brother) is From South Manchester, so will probably be delighted to 'come home'. Although in his case he's better off in London with the politicians and government in general[/quote]
so you don't know Nick at all do you, nor do you know the huge amount of charity work he, or his wife does in London
Charidee?
We don't like to talk about it actually mate.
If you're a young media type then moving your workplace from West London to the Quays will be something of a culture shock. Now central Manchester maybe, but SQ just doesn't compare...
my first time in london was working on the tour of britain about six years back. i had just driven from cardiff to london in a sprinter.
whilst parking my van on whitehall for the crit a cockney chap taps on my window, i wind it down to see what he needs, he says...what's the matter can't you park you c**t? 
and skips of over the hill singing my old mans a dustman.
parked fine aswell and everything.
Chatted for a while with some Chinese tourists
Liar. Everyone knows that if you say good morning to a stranger in london, perticually on the tube, youll be looked at like a frickin nut job. Chatting with a tourist, Ha, Perish the thought.

Knees up Muvva Brahyn...
I spent some time today in the British Museum, looking at Chinese and Japanese artefacts and stuff. Utterly fascinating and tremendously uplifting. Chatted for a while with some Chinese tourists, who were loving the collection of jade artefacts.
Chinese tourists who were loving the collection of jade artefacts ?
Why ?........hadn't they seen any before - did they have to trot halfway across the world to see some ?
Sounds like a made-up story to me...........we couldn't have stolen all of their precious artefacts Shirley.
Maybe we bought or borried them, you cynical git? 
I was most impressed with the collection of fine tourist women; examples from all over the Globe, and some beautiful specimens.
I think I may have frightened some Portuguese visitors though. 
I'm going to the V+A next week. Want to join me, Ern?
What day ?
Although isn't the V&A full of poncey arty bollox ? .......I prefer my museums to have proper stuff like steam engines and things with buttons that you can push and that 
Although I suppose an arty one might have more crumpet 
Thursday?
You can visit the Science Museum if you want to I spose.
V+A is more about art in design, really, than out and out art. Stuff like furniture and ornaments and stuff, not loads of paintings and fings.
Not that you'd know cos you've never bin probbly.
Propper nice totty in there though. Oh yes.
I seen a nice Japanese lass in the British, listening to one of them audio guide thingies, but she din't speak no English.
Which was probbly a blessing in disguise for her really.
And some actress bird off the telly give me the eye in Russell Square. 
No, it's true.
I was at the Science Museum recently with my little nieces ....... we had a brilliant time doing all the kiddies stuff
No I've never been to the V&A, and I guess going might give me a topic to talk about should I ever find myself in polite company. I don't want to waste my time looking at stuff made of wood though.
Look who's moving 
The head or the body? That's not a real pic you know.
ivixxiv-
so you don't know Nick at all do you, nor do you know the huge amount of charity work he, or his wife does in London
I didn't say I know Nick, ( I know his brother Mark) I said I know that Nick is from South Manchester.
Hahahahahaha!
I can see where this is going to lead...
