The cathedral looks nice:
But wiki tells me this has a population smaller than even Colchester's. And Colchester itself is pretty much a glorified village, imo.
Impressive cathedral !
Will look real nice with a good dose of sunlight

And you're doing your usual selective dragging out specific unnecessary parts of posts directed solely at specific posters you seem to have a personal grudge match with, that have little relation to the actual constructive discussion. All to stick up for a scenario where a woman is being called sexist. Good work
Ironically, given Kyrakos and Ed's bickering Norwich kind of reminds me of Athens. Walk through something historical and gorgeous, then turn a corner and find a massive road with an architectural monstrosity. Curates eggs of towns.
Edit - Who both make me want to find some old man who was a town planner in the 60's and "have words" with him.
I think you're using a pretty strange definition of village, but what makes somewhere a city or town is whether it is a local centre, which the surrounding area relies on. Thats why places like Stranraer or Haddington with populations of around 10,000 are towns when Penarth with a population of 27,000 is just a suburb.
That's because Athens isn't a real city either, although in its case it is a collection of 100 villages.
But when it comes to inbreeding they beat you. They gave us the doctors note "NFN", normal for Norfolk. Meaning the patient is fine, just weird/ inbred/ an idiot.

Athens just was reduced to a village for a 1000 years, then artificially got set up as a capital and city, in the early 19th century.
By the way, I was born in London, not Norfolk.
…So England will move from being a small nuclear power to... still being a small nuclear power? Not sure what Boris thinks those nukes will be accomplishing.
Norfolk isn't even metropolitan.
At least Thessalonike actually has a city form. Mainly because the central part of the core municipality is just the medieval city itself.
I am not DomenI think it is time for you to post a Greek thread and post pictures of your home town there.
Products like for example seed potatoes are forbidden to export to the EU.
That is indeed good news, albeit nearly five years late!.
As @Hrothbern has posted in another thread:
so there is no reason to stick with the EU technologically backward thinking on improving crops.
The dramatic improvement in UK crop yields that took place 1945 to 1975 ended shortly after
the UK joined the EEC; and I look forward to its resumption using more modern methods.
However my view is that the best way to move forwards to feeding growing populations and
meeting near zero carbon is radical genetic engineering to boost photo-synthesis so that plants
can be developed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere i.e. create changes that would not
arise out of random mutations and could not be produced by conventional plant breeding.
In this matter, the USA (not constrained by EU regulation) is ahead of the EU and the UK.
From what I see on R&D developments, China is going at the highest speed
in developing new food techs and new fibre techs
For example: the solution for all those micro plastics from washing our clothes
or all the pollution from using natural cotton
There is a difference between "should invest in such R&D" and blithely letting the results into the wild without appropriate risk analysis and public consultation.These are all good points.
Nevertheless, the UK should invest in such R&D, rather than blithely
assume it will automatically have the money to buy such on world markets.
