I think this is a suitable point to mention that Winchester is #5 in the
Crap Towns book of, well crap towns:

Town/Village: Winchester

Sure it's pretty and historic, but it's hardly the bastion of civility
many would have you believe.

Any character disappeared from the town centre when the high street
received the chain store make-over, house-prices are exorbitant and cater
exclusively for well-heeled London-employed family-builders seeking old
England, and the countryside has been hewn by Maggie's M3 legacy. And that
isn't the half of it. It's the middle-class complacency, nay arrogance
that defines the place.

This reactionary character is personfied by the town's most odious
insititution, Winchester College, and its inmates. Young public school
boys stride the historic streets, comfortable and sublimely superior in
the knowledge that daddy's considerable land-ownership and board-room
interests will see them through to their positions as Tory MPs
and beyond.

Ha ha :)

And yes, Croydon IS on the list, but at #15 ;)

Ahhh.... I think I can get the newer one at that price
"elsewhere" anyway
