I'd very happily live there, but it's fucking miles away from London.

50 minutes by train. It'll take longer than that to go accross London surely.

What's the season ticket cost like? An hour commute by train is a lot, seeing as you've got at least fifteen minutes either side unless you live and work in the train station.

bromley, kingston, guildford, berkhamsted, godalming, tring, bishops stortford, sevenoaks. turns out that being near london but not in london = depressing and boring.
properly shit towns include stockport, hull, bournemouth, southend, milton keynes, stevenage.

I worked a few days with a client down there and it was genuinely the most depressing place I've ever been. And I've been to a stag do in Weymouth.

but if you've got any sort of demand for proper night life, or decent entertainment, then you're fucked. I know a few good bars in Guildford that you wouldn't stumble across as a visitor, but they're full of all the cunts I went to school with.

My favourite Slough fact is that there's a display in one of the shopping centres there describing all the many ways you can get out of Slough.

That's painted right by the biggest fucking TK Maxx I've ever seen outside Tottenham Court Road.

On the plus side, the drivers in Slough are marginally better than those in Barcelona and Bucharest.

There is a noticeable change as you enter the county. I think its due to the sense of entitlement and superiority that permeates the place.
