    tbf I think we're planning on travelling a bit, so we're not sticking to one location because we plan on being in Glasgow and Edinburgh and London and Eyemouth.

    EDIT: I have housed almost 30 people in my place. There is floor sleeping required for those unlucky enough not to bagsy a bed, but...

    Well, I've never explored Scotland, so I'm down for roaming.

    I would have gone if you hosted it in Milton Keynes. Seriously, I keep asking Tara to take me there and she never will. I have a morbid fascination with that town. It calls to me for strange reasons beyond explanation.

    Why MK? There's nothing terribly special about it.

    Strange reasons beyond explanation~~~ I truly believe my destiny, the culmination of my life's work, waits for me in Milton Keynes.

    ...Probably in the back booth of a small pub somewhere.

    Milton Keynes is the kind of town that you put into Google Image Search and get depressed about because it's just that dull.

    Milton Keynes is truly awful. My parents took me and a brother on a shopping trip there as lads because they'd heard it had some big huge mall and it's not too far from me. My defining memory is of a strange woman forcing us to wear card baseball caps. I don't quite recall how this scenario came to be but when I always pass through MK on my way to London, I let out an involuntary shudder.

    Sounds amazing to me. Milton Keynes truly is a mystical place.

    As a man who proclaims to hate how grey the UK is though, fair warning: Milton Keynes is the very greyest the UK gets. It's peak grey. You need to build up your grey tolerance before you go anywhere near it.

    My Milton Keynes story is also strange, and also a joke at how terrible a place it is.

    I used to be a member of a woman's forum when I was younger, anyway, for some reason this kind of 'in-joke' came about that there was an airport at Milton Keynes (there isn't.) Anyway, whenever someone would mention that they were travelling, they would always be departing from Milton Keynes airport.

    So yeah, there you go. Another really bizzare tale of Milton Keynes.

    I recommend reading 'Fifty Shades of Grey' to truly understand how grey Milton Keynes is.
