That's quite a statement there, Kai! THE MOST OFFICIALLEST POLL EVER MADE!!!

Surely, there's something more official than this, but I'll make my vote in this poll of significant importance.

You racist, you didn't include my option, which was South Africa 1948 - 1994.

Defo Leeds. It just has that homey feel to it, although having said that I've thoroughly enjoyed both my visits to the Manc studios, its great and I'm sure it will grow on me even more over time. But as Rich and I discovered on our first visit, the adjacent parking lot costs a bomb so the 2nd time I went I orienteered my way there on foot from Manchester Picadilly station (and almost managed to leave Manchester as a result!) Also I've yet to hear of a Box Pizza alternative, although there's this bar that serves a fine Carling apparently...

If it ain't parallel, I ain't going.

I've voted for Manchester because of:
  • the Royal Exchange
  • the Northern Quarter
  • Canal Street
  • the Lowry Centre
  • the rather grungy pizza place whose name escapes me just up the street from the Royal Exchange
  • the Printworks
  • nostalgic reasons - it's where I went on my first demo
Apologies to Leeds fans but I don't know it anything like as well.

Manchester for me.

Closer to home
Parking is not a problem, as parking on the outskirts is easy, and then go to centre by tram (fast and frequent)
Nice bar close by
