Slough: Arsehole of Berkshire since 1844.

Oh, and before any Sloughites get on their high horses I used to live there...

Horrible bloody place (lived near Langley for 6 months). Now holed up down in Windsor.

There is a great long minor road West of Windsor, going towards Braywoodside. 2 miles long, just watch out for the bumps

Ahh, Drift Road. Used to love that road when I was "exploring the envelope" in my new car (ok, so it's a fiat, so what!). I came bounding along there, almost at the speed limit ( ) when as I topped one of the crests I could see this white escort slowing down... over the next crest I realised it had this blue lump on the top, and it was pulling up. I slowed down to 35, crawled past it, when just as I passed it did a three point turn, and raced off the other way.

As they say, if they ever want to give the UK an enema, Slough is where they will stick the pipe!

I find it quite funny when people run down Slough. It's no different to High Wycombe. Maidenhead is the place with it's head seriously stuck a long way up it's own exhaust pipe, and has anyone ever compared Slough to Bracknell or Croydon (trying to keep to a small area for comparisons - not fair to compare with Scunthorpe or Torquay for instance). And as for Windsor - nice enuf with the castle and all that, but why live there? Notice house prices in Windsor are not much different to Slough. Plus it's right in the flight path and packed with tourists. Silly place to build a castle

I've used to live near Slough (but not in - like the countryside too much).

All IMHO

ah yes, the infamous Drift Road, from the roundabout by the golf course heading towards Winkfield, I can get the Red change up light on in 3rd gear before sense prevails and I decide getting airborne is not the best thing for my Tuscan...

Hey, leave Wyc out of it

We have at least one less crack addict than Slough

Besides, The White Horse in Wycombe is rapidly becoming a national talking point for introducing the idea of 'exotic dancers' at lunchtime
