A new version of Monopoly which uses different towns/cities around the country as the places to visit. Surprisingly St Albans is in the Mayfair spot (well, it&#8217;s Hertfordshire isn&#8217;t it? My home county). So what gets to be the Old Kent Road of the UK? The place nobody wants? The wooden spoon of real estate? Liverpool!!! City of Culture. Oh the shame and horror!</p> Tue, 25 Sep 2007 05:52:00 GMT <a href="/articles/2007/09/25/monopoly">Monopoly</a> <a href="/articles/2007/09/25/monopoly">Monopoly</a>
