So, I'm watching the 1965 Documentary(ish)film "Primitive London" It is definitely entertaining, that for sure.  So you Brits that were around in 1965 London. How accurate is it?

I'd bet I'd feel much the same about London as I do about Philly, or Detroit, or NYC, or Atlanta, or Boston. You can keep them.
Now, there are a few major cities I like. San Francisco is pretty cool. Seattle is nice if you can handle the rain.

Man, I LOVE San Francisco. So do my wife and kids. It's our favorite major city. I remember when my daughter went to NYC. She called home to report on the first day. "Well," she say, "It sure does stink."
For the record, she lived in Johannesburg, SA, last summer, Belfast the year before, and in Beijing a couple summers before that, so she's been around.

In 1965 I was 18 years of age and lived in Manchester. (No different than London). 
I rode a 1954 Tiger 110.
Which group would you put me in.
The movie just about sums it up.

Looked like that to me five years later in 70, wide eyed 18 year old arriving from Canada's industrial south (Windsor)
