If I came from Luton or the equivalent dump, I would make an effort to move my family out of it. Perhaps some of these people who complain that they have lived there all their lives and can't do anything about it, should read Alan Sugars books, you cant feel sorry for people who don't help themselves.

I'll take that as a dig at me, not the first one either. I don't live in Luton, I live in neighbouring Dunstable which is a reasonable sort of place. In about 1980 I had the opportunity to move to Australia and work for my cousin in his motor parts business but my wife preferred to stay put so that put paid to that. From what I understand Australia is a great place to live but, according to an Aussie acquaintance of mine, the only problem is it's crawling with "Whingeing Poms".
