watford gap, not watford.

far be it from me to indulge in pedantry. but the expression is 'north of the watford gap', not north of watford. The watford gap being just south of leicester, and therefore a much more reasonable place for us londoners to think of as the end of civilisation.

do get annoyed with people continually confusing it with watford.
