Kieth you forgot the best feature of Leighton Buzzard known to me as "lazy Bast*rd" and that is the little railway spent many hours with my son on that.I also still own property in town, which also has branch of grand union.and will soon have new lake.Northampton to me is 10 mile away so Silverstone is nearer which is world famous for it's pies?

Ah, the little railway, known to me as "boring Bast*rd";. I was there recently (LB not the little train specifically) and it's funny how things stay the same, same people in the same chairs in the same pubs etc. Things are going well, they have an Argos now :D

We used to have to drive to Milton Keynes for luxuries like that.

Well, it is obviously Upminster BY A MILE :D:D:D

Its apparently the most sex obsessed town - if this article in "The Register" is to be believed (I'm not just making it up)

Here's the link http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/10/27/uk_map/

No other town comes close  :oto Upminster  :) That must make us famous if word gets around  ;)

Oh and not forgetting, on a serious note, Ian Dury lived here when he was a young boy :D

The Specials, Hazel O'connor, Larry Grason, Pete Waterman, Lady Godiva, motor museum. Home of car manufacturing (well it used to be) and a beautiful modern cathedral as well as the old one destroyed during the war.

Coventry (and you're welcome to it FOC)
