Incidentally, it's entirely off-topic, but is Milton Keynes as horrid as
it sounds?

Emphatically not! I have a friend who lives in Milton Keynes. He
tells me that when he moved there, it far exceeded his expectations.
That reflects what I had heard from others who have lived there.

Of particular note is that fact that the road system was designed with
the correct capacity for the population density. In the UK that is
hardly the norm.
