Hmm, lets see, there's a fancy modern building in the background, lots of plastic boats, and a narrowboat. Its a marina on one of the UK's rivers.

Right, 1/2 way between London and Lake District with canal long boats. Are we talking Shropshire Union or that type of ilk?


Didn't say 1/2 way. I would call it central.

OK North of Luton South of Derby

can't think of the name of the "ponsy" restaurant, but its the one by the marina (too noisy, too expensive and too many plastic boats....)

The Aquadrome?

If this answer is correct then Rob Smith gets the win not me. He did the hard work.

OK we seem to have a winner of er sorts. It is indeed the Billing Aquadrome. Quite the least impressive place I have ever seen, I thought it was a supermarket or Halfords at first and has a big sign on the M1 junction

OK Rob take it away.

Been to the Aquadrome a few times for shows and events.
As Bernie says that building is quite something to look at.

I'll be digging for a place to confuse and perplex you all...
