No, but my post was in jest. Hopefully I didn't upset you.

I suppose it is rather dreary, isn't it? But it's internationally unknown, so doubt anyone cares.

LOL. Me as well. I was just " yanking your chain " . My time in Leeds was VERY short, and I am really not qualified to judge it.

Also, equating Vancouver with Chinese, or Asians, is not an insult. Vancouver has a long history with Asia.
