The city itself is very lively and nice, but without a group of proper mates it's meh

>>2281
Why would you comment on your own post like this?

>>2282
I guess I felt like adding more on the subject?

Ha, just came on to make a similar thread. Except doing my Postgrad. Only know one person here, but he's recently married so kinda on a leash/tied down.

It's a big city and kinda boring/lonely at the merment. Luckily back home is Sheffield so it'll be pretty easy to drive or get the train back on weekend to see old friends. But hoping to expand my social circle here too obv.

>>2284
>obv

Urgh.

Watch out for the tramps. I've heard they're quite brazen in Manchester.

I'm a Sheffield ex-pat living in manc too. You'll be fine. Just don't buy any drugs from street dealers, they rip you off.

>>2284
What is your major?

>>2286

Untrue. There was one outside 111 Piccadilly for a good few months around October - May, he played the guitar. He started off shite and became alright towards the end (even though he only knew one song) and then one day he mysteriously disappeared.

>>2284
There seems to be a few of us here in the same situation. Anyone up for a meet up later this week?

>>2291

American?

MSc Development Economics and Policy.

>>2296

I'm not averse to it...

>>2299
Postgrad student at the uni of Manc as well. In the same department as you too.

Righteo then, my email is mother0fdragons@hotmail.com if anyone wants to do something.

i, too, am a manchesterfag. repeating my first year on BA english language at uni of.

>>2300

I smell a pozzing. It's up North and all.

>>2286
This lad has it. I was once in manchester with my dad, and they kept asking for "money for a pastie". He went and got them a pasty, instead of just giving them money, and the piece of shit refused it and said he wanted /money/ for a "pastie"
Fucking druggies.

>>2316
Maybe he has a problem with one nipple sticking out embarrassingly when it's cold. Funny he should only need one though.

>>2287
Confirming this. I got separated from my mates on a night out and ended up doing coke with a black guy called Ollie. I spent £300 that night.

I'm at Man Met. Obviously, do ho ho.

>>2436
Why is it relevant that he's black?

>>2437
He was black and wore a dench hoodie but was called Ollie and had a distinctly home counties accent. I don't know, it just seemed weird to me, didn't mean to draw unnecessary attention to it, sorry.

I'm looking to move to Manchester in July/August with a couple of friends, any Mancfags got any advice over where to live?

We'd like it to be reasonably central (within 5 miles or so of the centre I guess), not too expensive and without much chance of getting mugged. A quick search threw up suggestions of Chorlton or Didsbury. Opinions?

>>2447

Moss Side.

>>2447
Withington could suit you. Fallowfield too, if you don't mind masses of students.

I live in a rather swish apartment just on the other side of the northern quarter.

The amount of autism around Piccadilly is just crazy.

>>2448

Seconding this, it's actually pretty cheap to live around there for some reason.

>>2476
How cheap?

>>2477

How much do you value your life?

>>2478
I doubt smackheads and rude boys go around Piccadilly.

I will be in these fair parts Northern parts parts Thursday evening and most of Friday, what should I go see/do and does anyone want to buy me a drink? And not if it's on Canal St, I'm not entirely silly.

Salford Uni unfortunately.

Pub?

>>2602
I'm off to see Kunt And The Gang at Fab Cafe on Thursday.
Anyone in Manchester should come down.

>>2604
Ohhh. How much OTD?

>>2447

Oldham, towards the town centre where you can get the tram easily.

>>2606
Think about 6 quid, not sure. £5 if you prebook.

>>2608
I am tempted. If you spot a goth hanging around in there looking lonely, come say hi.

>>2609
No one is saying hi to me. Is it because I shouted "yoo knoo noothin Jon Snoow" is response to the supporting band talking about Gamur Frones? Sorry, I've had a long day.

>>2611
There is a bloke here with a Nonce Sense shirt sitting across from me. I bet it's you isn't it. I can feel it in my tits.

>>2612
That wasn't me, I was the twat in the bowler hat.
I only saw one "goff" type who fit the stereotype, but he wasn't sat alone.
I was one of the people who shouted out "mother's cunt" before he sang fucksticks.[

>>2280
I go to Uni of Manc

where are you living?

>>2613
>he

You were looking at entirely the wrong person. Anyway, thank you for suggesting Kunt and the Gang, it was a fantastic night even though I then walked to Piccadilly instead of Victoria and then had to book myself into a swanky hotel for £95 a night. It's alright though, I figured 'in for a penny, in for a pound' and brought my favourite personal fuckstick up from London for a good shagging on the kingsize. The bathtub was excellent. Top night, would do again.

Can anyone show me what the inside of the Albert Hall looks like please? Can't find anything decent.
There's a gig I want to attend and the tickets are for Row GA but I can't find a seating plan anywhere.

>>2712
Are you in seat number -- as well? Without knowing the place, I'd guess your tickets are General Admission - i.e. no reserved seat.

>>2438

I know a white guy called Ollie who has a dench hoodie and a home counties accent, do you think it's the same guy?

>>2719

I went to university with him! He wasn't called Ollie though.
