i agree the district bit sounds cute, but is that a realistic reflection of the town. and would you spell that out fully to people everytime someone asks where your from.
the instant recognition stems from a footy advert- now in my mind that means chav territory. how can that improve a towns image?
why waste precious resources in this day and age on uneccessary idle luxuries in the times of global warming
