    Staines is inside the M25, so it qualifies. It has a nice bit called Staines Moor or something similar. I used to work next to there with views over Heathrow Airport.

      How could I have forgotten Croydon

      Is it just me or is there generally a correlation between the number of roundabouts and the crumminess of a town? Think Reddich, Swindon, Slough...

          Is Swindon the place with the giant roundabout that has lots of mini roundabouts in the roundabout? I'll avoid that place.

            Yes. It has that and the millionaire Dim Prawn who owns most of it.

                The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
