Just being nosey.

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

Which is the closest city to you?

I think our closest city is Westminster. I’m in Upper Norwood (Crystal Palace) and though our nearest large towns are big enough to be a city, it’s not one, Croydon was considered for a city at one point but was turned down I believe. Any googling brings up not much!

Pretty much in the middle of London and Cambridge. They're nice choices to have

Nicnack85 · 27/12/2023 20:12

Also "not a city" Guildford - University and Cathedral, and still not managed city status! So, London it is!

The one I live in!

Winchester just 20 mins away. Beautiful but not very useful. Next nearest are London and Southampton.

We live pretty much equidistant between three. And I can't tell you what they are because you would then know where I live. 😂

Nearest city by a hair is Bradford, never venture there. Leeds is only just further and my preferred city.
