    Got a babysitter over the weekend and considering treating the missus to a dirty weekend.

    So who has the best city for a short trip and what is there to get up to for a fairly young couple on a Saturday evening?

    I was considering Glasgow as it's the cheapest place to get to from Belfast, but it's full of sectarian thugs.

    Blackpool or Preston are cheap and good nights out.

    there's no football on so at the minute we're all cutting about arm in arm, singing songs and generally being nice to one and other. however, it has been pissing it down for the last two months and if you dont want to drown trying to cross the street i'd aim south of the border <ok>

    Pitlochry is lovely.

    Not sure if it has an airport or not though.

    My favourite's York. Plenty to see during the day, nice places to eat and a decent nightlife.

    Can't remember but I let my girlfriend organise it which was a big ****ing mistake. Ended up in some ****ty B&B miles from anywhere.

    The cruise of the Avon was nice.

    Malteser, Glasgow it is. Forget the Not606 bullshit about thugs.

    Great restaurants, pubs, cinema, shoping, casino etc.

    Anything you want to do Glasgow has it. Yes it's full of some scumbags but if you tell them to **** off they don't bother you (did that today at lunchtime).

    I think it's the best city to visit in the UK apart from London. You could do Edinburgh which is lovely but boring.
