Guess where I live from five clues!

[SkipperKipper]

Just a bit of fun! Feel free to join.

I’ll give 5 facts about where I live and see if anyone guesses the right answer.

1. 15 minutes from an airport
2. Lots of pubs/charity shops
3. 30 mins from inner city
4. Very white British/little diversity
5. Pork pies!

has the OP picked up her marbles and gone home?

Fair play to you. It’s a great little fact about the town isn’t it!

Cars used to be built here
They throw buns off the County Hall to mark important occasions
Oldest continually occupied settlement in the UK
Although we had an Abbey (looking at you Henry VIII), what are often referred to as the ruins is actually a folly.

And if you haven't guessed, this one will give it away:
Radiohead

Abingdon

( I’m thinking the home of the MG and the lovely Abbey )

@SkipperKipper Market Harborough?

OP hasnt come back. I mentioned the same on page two and again later

On the basis we both agree I think we should give ourselves a slap on the back and say we are correct
🥳

Yes!

Such a loss to the town the MG factory closing down (I am just old enough to remember).

1: Pretty
2: Hills of precious metal
3: Ancient seat of English Royalty
4: Rural
5: Hovis

Shaftesbury - Gold Hill, Hovis ad...
Also a Tesco I have visited many times for their loo - it's en route between my home and my daughter's 😁

Sorry, I didn’t see yours, but I agree with you and we should be feeling very smug 😆

1. isn’t pronounced how it’s spelled
2. has a popular independent market
3. has a bridge named after a F1 driver
4. Pearl Lowe and Danny Goffey used to live here
5. had a controversial free Steiner school (shut down after a damning Ofsted report)

Haha. Yup! And to be fair, they are good toilets!
