    Those who voted Luton no 1 have obviously never been to Slough, where I live. I think the only "named" shops are Boots and Primark. 3 charity shops, 2 of which are the-end-of-the-line shops where anything that hasn't sold anywhere else goes to die.

    Well I am in Wolverhampton but am from Stotfold originally so I know all the places you go to - Unfortunately I think this is pretty much the case across the country - we all love buying stuff online but this is what it's doing to the Town Centers

    I was born in Luton too (1980) then moved to mid beds, much nicer 🙂. Then moved to outskirts of Bedford which isn’t great nowadays, Bedford used to be nice in the 90s, when I went to school there, but it’s gone downhill. A few years ago we went charity shopping in Luton for a bit of fun and a rat ran across the road, near the Moat House, in broad daylight, and I said never again 😆. The better charity shops in Luton, are in the housing estates, not the town centre ones. I think, you said the other day your middle name was Amber, in the village I grew up in (Maulden) there was a younger girl than me, called Amber, and I’m now wondering if it was you! Could it have been?

    • @Married2Reselling
      @Married2Reselling  3 місяці тому

      Oh gosh, rats are never a good sign when you see them out and about. The good old Moat House carvery. We used to meet each other there sometimes on a Wednesday eve before we lived together 🤣 Yes that’s my middle name, doubt it was me. I grew up in Silsoe. My parents live in Maulden now though. Where did you live? We do whizz around the other chazzas in Luton sometimes but we don’t tend to go over that way much these days now we’re over near Biggleswade.

      We lived opposite the Rec, in a little close called Brightmans Drive. I love Maulden and would move back if I could afford a house there. How funny that you know the moat house, my brother was assistant manager at the moat house, for a very short while in the early 2000s. I went to Girl Guides in Silsoe but it was a bit of a rubbish troop 😄

    I live in outer NW London - I don't go to Luton (there is a Keech discount shop out of town near a trading estate which can be ok but I haven't been for ages) and it always surprises me that Harpenden is only a few miles away and that is super posh. Charity shops in large town centres and tourist towns tend to be pretty awful.

    • @Married2Reselling

    Sadly all town centres are dieing......ppl just shop online so all the little 'mosey around on ya dinner break' or sat afternoon, are just gone now. or moved into a big indoor shopping centre, and the town shops are left empty, and thats everywhere. I grew up in Cornwall, its all the town down here, and Plymouth is the same. Just way it is nw.
    Thanks 4 the look around guys, I pictured Luton to be much more vibrante, and woulda thought alot more there, but ovz not.xx

      You’d have to ask the people that voted but with good transport links, international airport, university. In paper, it shouldn’t be bad enough to make #1

    Luton was not as bad as I imagined. A lot of towns look like that these days sadly. It’s kind of Swindon level grim. I I think there are many far worse places. I went to Banbury recently, which I assumed was going to be a pretty wealthy market town, and I was surprised how horrible it was

    • @Married2Reselling

    I live in Winchester which has got nice countryside around so I do realise I am lucky to live here. It has often been voted to be one of the best places to live but charity shops are really expensive - I hardly ever go into them plus frequent traffic jams where the city wasn't designed for vehicles. Car parking really expensive, lots of rubbish on the streets and people sleeping rough. Then there are the tourists which also clog up the pavements. I think every town has its issues these days unfortunately.

    My parents married at St Mary's church in 1953 .. beautiful church. I never go in to town and there's been so many changes. I hate the place it makes me anxious. It was great to see it on your video though . Not the town it used to be by any means. Ill carry on shopping on line. Thanks for filming it. Xx

    A lot of places in the UK have change a lot over the years, and not for the better. Last year I took a trip back to Oxfordshire where I grew-up and worked for many years. Didcot, Wallingford, Temple Cowley, Benson, Abingdon, Oxford City... Hopefully at 56 years old I will be gone before the Government totally trash Norfolk too.
