did anyone see... Kingston in the Times travel section!

[A_J]

The Sunday Times travel section had a big piece on Kingston:

Personally I don't find Kingston that attractive (apart from the fact that I met my wife there!). But, it was a nice article about it.

It takes all sort of people to make a world. i will wager you may find some place likable that very reasonable people find the opposite. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: A_J</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The Sunday Times travel section had a big piece on Kingston:

Re: did anyone see... Kingston in the Times travel section!

Kingston stop at Torrington Bridge. It run along Slipe Pen Rd it goes as far as Orange street St Andrew start at the bottom of Slipe road. It borders at the north of Hero's park . Kingston usually include St Andrew though. Even when St Andrew is included, it is still on the south coast.
But i have come to expect this sort of thing from visitors. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: MCGee</div><div class="ubbcode-body">btw - whipawt Kingston stop and St. Andrew start? always wondered about that. </div></div>

Victoria Vubilee Hospital is across North Street and is really physically in St Andrew.

there is no rhyme r reason to where Kingston starts and St Andrew stops....

case in point,Stony Hill is Kingston 9....HWT is Kingston 10,etc etc so u can see where the goodly Doc's ansa has no merit

the boundaries of the past have not kept up wid di classifications dat came about because of housing schemes and the need to have a postal code....

i was kind of wondering. torrington bridge as a borderline seemed to make kingston really small.
