Harpenden – the smuggest town in the smuggest county

Living in Harpenden, Hertfordshire

In one of the “boutique shops” on the High Street (between a Costa and a charity shop), they sell mugs that say “I’m terribly posh, I’m from Harpenden”.

Kings Langley: A Hertfordshire village of very little

Living in Kings Langley, Hertfordshire

A lot of locals still cling to the idea that Kings Langley is still a village. Well if it is, it’s a damned big village.

Living in or moving to Luton, Bedfordshire

Well what can I say about this absolute hole? I had the misfortune of living in Luton for just over a year. I was lucky, being that I lived in Leagrave; pretty posh for Luton. But still a complete dump. When I first moved to Luton I decided to walk to work to try and […]

Loathsome Luton!

Living in Luton, Bedfordshire

Luton has been let down by everyone from the train companies to the council. I’ll act as a tourist guide starting with the station which looks decrepit at best, even though it’s located along one of the most expensive commuter routes, the station operator can’t be asked to fix the leaking roof instead putting traffic […]
