      I have no idea why people hate the place. I like it here. The only thing that it lacks is a range of nightclubs but as I have kids now it does not really affect me.

          I'm in Farnborough with Stek, too...

          Was wondering through the town yesterday and some of the sights you see are truly astonishing. I have never seen so many young, single GIRLS pushing prams, nor so many unappealing people in general.

          This was coming from working in Weybridge, where walking around there, you would always be pleasantly surprised.

              Hotels and flights won't kill you but the free breakfasts and evening booze might.

                Try having a walk around Telford's 'Town Center'. The birth rate for under 18's is around +30% the national average. Literacy is about the lowest.

                A young woman I worked with told me a first pregnancy for a woman over 23 meant she was considered a 'mature' new mother.

                  Telford? Luxury!
