Just being nosey.

We live pretty much equidistant between two.
Today, we went into Cambridge.

Which is the closest city to you?

Em’bra. Although technically I now live closer to one of the new cities but although I’m proud it’s finally been recognised, I still don’t think of it as a city 😂

New cities? Edinburgh is also sadly my closest city at the moment 😐

Wrexham. I also had to check that it was a city - otherwise it would be Chester.

I'm halfway between Portsmouth and Southampton.

I haven't been to either for decades.

i live in a small city was given city status at the queens last jubilee so its 3 miles away. however the real closest city to me is Glasgow and its 30 odd miles away.

Newport, though in my mind I think of Cardiff as the Big City.

I am always sad at the thought of how so many of our cities have been allowed to languish.
