 The cultural learnings of a northerner darn sarf - RattleandSmoke
Back home now, had poor 3G access and was too busy hence no posts.

With regard to Bristol it does have a strong accent, it was just when I made the first post I hadn't heared it yet. I got back to Manchester at 10:03pm, I got home at 10:20 via a taxi and was out again by 11:00 to meet my mates in town. I didn't drink much though as I am working tomorrow.

I will make a full post tomorrow but this what I had planned

Bristol
Minehead
Plymouth 2 nights
Torquay

I found Plymouth so rough that I cancelled the second night and went on a long treck to New Quay and strangely fell in love with the place. More on that tomorrow.

Being down south and coming back to Manchester I just cannot believe how different the music tastes are. I did find a rock bar in Torquay last night but even that mainly played modern indie (considered too commercial in Manchester) and that bar was full of fellow northerners.

Now there are some great bands from down south such as the Clash and The Cure so I cannot understand their obsession with chart and RNB. I may have just gone to the wrong places but I was told that RNB is apparently what they play in bars and clubs.

I don't care if its Paul Simon, New Order or the Sex Pistols I need my music to have guitars.

Both Torquay and New Quay were lovely in in terms of views probably helped by the temperatures of upto 19c. It wasn't forcasted at all so it was a nice surprise.
