Let's go mad......
Crap places in the UK......for once in the NAAFI, lets turn it upside down. Where is a good place in the UK ? Where would you have your dreamhouse ? I nominate middle-Somerset.

Fakenham in Norfolk. For all the slagging the county takes, I've never struck such uniformly warm and friendly people.
We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.
In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

I know quite a few "good " places in the UK, but I am not going to let all and sundry know where they are.

Certain parts of Sussex that are further away from the railway station.
No sooner did we form into teams than we were re-organised.
I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet every situation by re-organising and what a wonderful method it is for giving the illusion of progress whilst only producing confusion, inefficiency & demoralisation.
