Swindon makes Basingstoke look cosmopolitan and chic.

I have to go to Basingstoke once a year to get school uniform for my lads school ,and always joke that I can her the flip flap of webbed feet on my journey to the special place...

I've been through the train station a few times and also changed trains there a few times. I've only been brave enough to leave the station confines once and once is more than enough.

I think i might have passed through once on a bus going to Southampton, or was that Slough? Oh what the heck.

17%. I'm quite pleased with that, even though it falls below what you'd expect from a randomiser, given that there are 4 answers to each question.

With the Basingstoke skyline dominated by glass, steel, concrete and

25%, I feel ill.
Complete guesses, but I am puzzled, why would someone who lives in a beautiful place like Delft have any interest at all in Basingstoke? I was in Delft in August where 2 Dutch friends treated us to some amazing Apple cake, cannot imagine they would even have heard of Basingstoke and I am not about to tell them in case I lose their friendship [and my next treat of apple cake].

Haven't you seen the "Hanging Gardens of Basingstoke"?!

My head office was in Swindon once, a satellite in Basingstoke and my office in Manchester. A triumvirate of crap places, it's no wonder I'm afflicted.

No, quite a bit naffer.

There seems to be a good tradition of love and hate in these posts...go for Bollo's suggestion and shun the glass, the monolithics, the...er wait a minute. Is it really that bad?
I got 21% via not knowing anything. There is a nightclub there though, as I have stood outside with a few erstwhile members onetime (on bikes I might add) What was the original one called?
