    I've never seen a dog do one, so I always though it was a specific breed.

    I disagree with the hot steaming bit. I'd rather go with cold and stale.

    Yes, (there should have been a voting button). Worked on a 1 month assignment there a few years ago. Terrifying. Awful. S**t. There just aren't word to describe it. Come friendly bombs....

    Worked there for 6 months, the car was broken into 3 times and I witnessed a suicide as someone jumped from the multi-storey car park.

    MDA have an office there - 'nuff said!

    Lived there for 1 month, then gave notice and went elsewhere.

    That was exactly 30 years ago but the memory lingers ..... I believe it has got worse since.

    A colleague of mine did a gig in Slough a while back. She told me the client used to advise its workforce to stagger the exiting of their cars from the car park onto the main carriageway, in order to try and put off the car-jackers... Nuff said.
