    So those who sell pot noodles and tissues will be fine then?

    In 2000 BC, Babylonia was written as "dull, dull, dull. Who wants to live here?" by Socrates.

    Luckily I only work on the outskirts of Swindon and can manage to avoid visiting Swindon proper. It is a real dump, always has been and will only get worse.

    House prices to fall dramatically in the next year here - who will that affect?

    To some, Swindon is a nowhere town, a commercial wilderness with no character, but it has kept Mark Horsington, 46, in work for the past 26 years.

    So high unemployment is worse than full unemployment?

    Do you work in the government?




    BTW, I went to Swindon. Once.
