14 Problems Only People From Milton Keynes Will Understand

7. The Shopping Centre Feeling Like A City In Itself

Milton Keynes centre was built intentionally as a leisure, shopping and business district; and when you were little, you could wander the shopping centre for hours and feel like you were in Narnia and that the shops would continue in their lines into infinity. Being ten and wandering between the €˜John Lewis end€™, the €˜M and S end€™ and €˜the new bit€™ was a bit like what you now imagine navigating Europe to feel like. But all in one day. And once you€™d lost which end you€™d just walked from, it was all too easy to find yourself completely disorientated and wondering if you€™d ever make it home alive.
