Not everywhere could get into a fight over SNOW. We are truly special.
I'm a little surprised the Tourist Board don't have us in the top ten of places to visit in the UK. But then, you can't pay the Tourist Board for listings.

I, for one, salute that Purple Flag that flies so proudly over our happy, peaceful town.

A good idea would be to buy another purple flag...... Just to make sure!

Malcolm you seem to be the only person that posts nowadays. Why don't you just post under your real name Cllr Meerabux, then people would get to know the real you.

I once read somewhere that Watford is the biggest town in the UK without a tourist information centre.
