Wolverhampton then. What is there apart from smog, a football ground and a load of students? Well quite a lot I would say. I came to Wolverhampton to go to university. Well, I transferred here from a far, far worse place than this! So what is there then. I'll begin with the obvious, Shopping! The city's centre is relatively large.
