My first was Lancaster, because I was brought up there. Stayed with family in Manchester as a child and worked there for some years, and first went to London as a young teen.
Looking at the .Gov list, I've not been to Chelmsford, Chichester, Colchester, Derby, Ely, Exeter, Lichfield, Peterborough, Southend.
None in NI
Scot-not Dundee or Aberdeen
Wales- not Bangor, Newport, St Davids, St Asaph
We're not city people, prefer a pretty village. Been to a lot of those.

Are you including the new ones? Some are now overseas, which would rule them out, I guess!

First one was London, as it was by far the nearest when I was born. When I was born, Enfield my place of birth, was in Middlesex, but it is now regarded as London.
I have also been to 40 in England, 4 in Scotland, 3 in Wales, and Gibralta. My wife probably hasn't visited quite as many because some of those I visited when I was working as a coach driver. Neither of us has been to Ireland.

There are 18 I haven't been to, some of which I don't think I'll ever visit, which doesn't really bother me - although I would rather like to see Oxford and Cambridge, for the architecture and the academic vibe (but not the traffic problems!). My first was Liverpool, being born just across the river, then Chester where I later went to college.

I had to google the cities too. Most of the ones I haven't been to are in the north of England. In Scotland I have been to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness, and Aberdeen. All a good few years ago and mainly by train, although Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen I went either by a truck or coach that I was driving, so all for work purposes.
