Re: get on with each other......
there are concrete cows though.mk is the perfect exapmle of the planners and councilors ideas and ideals of what they think we want and therefore should have.
It has more roundabouts than any other town in the world. it has hundreds of them, and they produce a calendat each year with th favourites on.

Re: get on with each other......
According to a ground guide I've just been reading, the away fans' pub at MK Dons is somewhere called "Shout" which is above the bus station and a night club type place. Sounds dire, but very much in keeping with the general ambience of Milton Keynes.

Re: get on with each other......
got some good entertainment and facilities there though they've got that floating on air in a tank thing, real ski slope, bowling cinemas, night clubs, NICE parks, it's always been clean and tidy when I've been, they've got the bowl, although that needs major work in my opinion. There's a quad course by the motorway to, a really long one, I'd love to have a go on that.

Well, Lancashire for a couple of reasons:
1) The geographic centre of Great Britain is at a place called Dunsop Bridge, which lies aprox. 10miles Nor'by North-West of Accy.
2) So if GB was a human body, that would make Lancashire the belly-button; However, we're talking about England, so chop off the skirt-wearers to the north & the sheep lovers to the west, and that moves the belly button south, the bum to the Brummies (how apt) and the heart to Lancashire.
3) HM the Queen - the living symbol of England - is of course, the Duke of Lancaster (second title, before Defender of the Faith, Queen of Scotland, Canada, Australia,etc,etc)
'Owt else you want to ask?

Presumably, good cask bitter or farmhouse cider will not be on sale in such an establishment; would I therefore be correct in thinking that the pre-match elixir will be one or more of these "extasy" tablets? if so, how many shall be needed to match three good pints, and what will be the price?

Re: get on with each other......
So your saying the heart is up above the centre which does make sense, It always puzzled me why people say the centre of england is the heart
I've found this site called heart of england
http://www.visitheartofengland.com/Tourist.aspx
what do you make of that?
