I spent the weekend in Manchester, which was good but didn't blow my mind with its out-of-control Cool Brittania or anything. There were plenty of drunk Northern lads and lassies and some really nice architecture.
My recommendation of the week is: Take the M6 toll road. It only costs £2, it's got great tarmac, and the Welcome Break is like being in Copenhagen.

Innocence lost
From a lengthy rant on my favourite and oft-bogarted website BoingBoing, that's founder has just moved from Canada to England:
"At the end of the day, it came to this: These are our rules. We will stick to them. We will not make exceptions to them. We will hug them to our bosom beyond any kind of rationality or reason."
Ah, poor Cory Doctorow. You so smart. But you not know England. Welcome to the Isle of Frustration.
