Went to Luton on a few occassions. I'm a Herts gal - home counties :)

I wouldn't go back either. Is it me or has it gone down hill back south the past few years. My home town is a dump now compared to what it was yonks ago (Hertford). No offense but I've heard Luton's gone a bit poo. Any truth in that?

I've just had a brilliant idea for a game - 'Town Trumps'. Stafford would be the winning card every time, obviously. You could have points for things like number of tramps/nutters per capita and how many kids there are outside MacDonald's on a Saturday afternoon.

Not from Luton, but I'm from South Wales, and my hubby is from Wiltshire - we're both pretty impressed with Stafford - it seems a nice mix of stuff and things. We feel very at home here.

Top Idea! :)

My home town has gone so pants that MacDonalds closed down. You know a place has gone to pot when Mc D's goes.

We should get tonnes of bonus points - prison, St George's, thing that looks like Back to the Future. I think there should also be bonus points for the Vets that has moved down by JC Computing by the dentist. If you take a careless glimpse of the signage outside, it appears to be the only dual purpose vet / dental surgery going. Pot luck the reception desk?
