A Warm Welcome to Brum...

by TracyG - last update: Jul 6, 2003

The Floozy in the Jacuzzi - Birmingham City Centre
Well, I will be the first to admit it - Birmingham has never had a good image in the UK, but beleive me, gone are the days of Industrial factories, dirty canals and ugly buildings, Birmingham has been/in the process of being reborn.... The city center is in the process of refurbishment, Brindley Place and Broad Street have some of the best bars & restaurants in the country, and the infamous Bull Ring is being redeveloped - IT'S ALL CHANGE IN THE UK'S SECOND CITY....
I am currently living in Aberdeen due to Uni, but my mom still lives just south of Birmingham in Redditch. I visit Birmingham on a regular basis, so I know Birmingham very well and I hope I can change any bad opinion you might have about it...
