Yeah and we could hand out the stab proof vests at the train station.

Yes, because a large group of people would be likely to be attacked in broad daylight, with lots of witnesses around, wouldn't they?

Unless we decide, for some demented reason, to do Escapism at night, I think we should be ok.

At night, yes, when all the crack adicts and cider-swilling chavs come out, we'll be fine.

I said London, because it's closer, but I could also do Birmingham most probably.

I'd also suggest after the school exam time because, much as I love you all, I won't be distracted from them.

Liverpool. Not only do we have a scenic river which is barely 50% toxic waste, we are also the European city of culture (or so I have been told).

I happen to live in a pub that has been twice voted 'Pub of the Year' by CAMRA, and 'Beer Pub of the Year' twice by the Good Pub Guide, and, er, 'Boozer of the Year' by Loaded magazine. Unfortunately, it's in the arsehole-end of nowhere, so I guess that's out.

If I wear an escapist Tshirt can I have a discount?

How come there aren't any options in Scotland, like Glasgow or Edinburgh?

But yeah, London works best for me. Though I hate the city it's the only one there which I know I could confidently get around in thanks to the underground. I've never really visited any of the others so I would probably get lost very quickly.
Well sorry, I'm a bit biased living in the south. If it was in Scotland I couldn't get involved.

Tell me that was a joke...have you ever been to London? I might live in the country now, but i spent the first 7 years of my life in London, and I can tell you its perfectly safe.

Dude, I've lived in London all 17 years of my life and not once have I come even close to getting stabbed. Its pathetic how people think London is a bad area because of a few minor incidents. Its areas like Manchester, Liverpool and Glasgow you want to avoid. In Glasgow your 7 times more likely to get stabbed than ANYWHERE else in the UK.
I didn't say that. I said I had a stab vest already.

And last time I was in london (last week) I got shouted at within 5 minutes of arriving. For looking up from my magazine in a café.

Summary: Cities are scary.
