| From 'Pulp Magazine' ...which is a well produced, readable and
even better it's free. Produced by MMU students and
better than the dross we used to turn out, though not as
scurrilous. It has less spelling mistakes than these web
pages. Chorlton Highs - small town in a big city,
more conveniant than you think. Whilst its off the beaten track in terms of Wilmslow Road "corridor" Chorlton has much to recommend it as a place to live. A small town in its own right there all the amenities you could need and a mini bar culture that mirrors that of the city centre whilst retaining the local ambience with everything from "real" pubs (The Beech) to bars for the label watchers and "mmm, nice" jazz fanatics (Polar Bar and Blue Note respectively). When the weather is nice you can
even take a stroll through the meadows to Jackson's Boat
for a lazy pint or two in the sunshine (hah!) safe in the
knowledge that you're only a couple of miles out of the
city centre. Be warned though, a move to Chorlton could
well turn into something that lasts way beyond the
duration of your degree..... |

From 'City Life' - that's Manchester's listings magazine. For southerners I'll explain that it's like 'Time Out'. Oh, Time Out I've heard of that. For some reason they have produced a student special in March - it's paid for by adverts and is bundled free in the current edition Helen Duff on 10 things every Manchester student should have done by now. No. 5 Wised up to Manc geo-politics. Now pay attention: North Manchester dislikes South Manchester because South Manchester's soft and South Manchester dislikes North Manchester because North Manchester's hard. East Manchester's softer than hard Manchester and harder than soft Manchester and West Manchester's Salford which is hard, except Worsley, which is soft. People who think they're cool live in Withington, people who know they're cool live in Eccles and everyone dislikes the kind of lame divot who lives in Chorlton. No.6 Deceided to live in Chorlton. See above. |
