I seem to remember being taken on an outing to Dudley Zoo where I was told there was an elephant who played the harmonica and a famous gorilla… "Dudley zoo has changed a lot. Flossy the elephant as long gone. Bubbles the orca has left the moat. They are spending a lot of money redeveloping the site. | |||

"I'm back in Birmingham next week, for the third time in a month. It has a feel but I love London. The series of villages that is London means you never quite know what you will find. In less than 10 minutes I can walk to a little river and looking in one direction it looks like a country village scene but if I turn my head to the right I can see the towers of the City and to the left the blocks that show this is an inner city area." Birmingham is similar, very multi cultural. You can walk one hundred yards and be mugged in ten different languages | |||

"Never been to Brum. I hate London, that's all I am saying on that. just think of Brum as little London, and you wont go far wrong. only difference is they have different funny accents lol" No way. The architecture and landscapes are different. The colour schemes of the bricks and stone immediately identify that it's not London. The vibe is different, the air is different (London loses there), even the way people drive tells you that you're not in London. | |||
