Iagree about the ring road --it does what it is supposed to do, also if you take the wrong exit it's easy to get back on....not like Birmingham where you end up in Edgbaston if you miss the exit --at least I do!. tRYING TO GET TO THE REP CONFUSES ME I END UP sneakily GOING THE WRONG WAY ON THE ONE WAY EXIT.to get there.

Pity about Bedworth-
it's quite attractive now,with the alms houses and church and the lovely park, but the shops are rubbish for a shopping centre- 5 charity shops- 4 or 5 card shops, cheap shoe, and teenage clothes shops, Woolies and the usual chemists. In the slummy days when I first moved here ,one could buy anything, --there were some good shops and there was a decent street market3 times a week. Now the market is psuedo Victorian posh and tucked away-even the traders don't like it-what few turn up.
Maybe if and when Aldi opens more people will shop here. although Tesco is closing in a couple of years.
