Town in Yorkshire, England.

Originally a spa town for rich Victorians, they came to `take the waters' and be healthy, unfortunately the waters smell like rotten eggs and probably do you just as much good.

Also known for its Betty's tearooms, toffee, flower shows, exhibitions and conferences - mostly conservative, normally the home of the Great Yorkshire Show but we're culling the cows this year.

Jam-packed full of old stingy millionaires with obligatory Barbour jackets or fur coat.

Surprisingly, one of the biggest drug problems of the north, you'd never know it.

No decent night-clubs but plenty of beer boys, especially around Carrington's and Jimmy's.
