New York Times praises Birmingham

Priceless PR for the city  - thats how a newspaper article about Birmingham is being discribed after it was published in New York.

It describes the city as "big shouldered, friendly and fun", highlighting places such as The Bullring, the Balti triangle and even pub The Fighting Cocks in Moseley.

It's thought we could see a few more American tourists about the place after such glowing reviews.
