The site is the brainchild of Darren Cronian, editor of the UK independent travel consumer blog, Travel Rants. Darren lives near Leeds and was so hacked off by the lack of up to date information about ideas for local outings with his nephew that he decided to set up MyLifeinLeeds.

I’ve only visited Leeds once and spent a few hours around the city centre. I was impressed by the conversion of the Corn Exchange into a gastronomic centre, brimming with restaurants and shops selling food and drink.
