	Watford Gap - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Watford Gap and the small village of Watford, is the traditional crossing point on the old east-west coaching route across England.
		Nowadays, the village lends its name to the nearby Watford Gap service station on the M1 motorway which was the first motorway service station in the UK.
		The village is often mistaken for the much larger town of Watford in Hertfordshire, about 50 miles south, especially when people use the phrase "North of Watford (Gap)" to mean an imaginary division of the country into northern and southern halves.

		Watford did not have things all their own way and were forced to come from three goals down before securing the points.
		Watford entered the game with a three-goal advantage under the handicap system, but required a three-goal burst in the final quarter to eventually book their place in the last four by the narrowest of margins.
		Watford, however, refused to press the panic button and from the restart they forced a man-up situation of their own and this gave Martin-Dye the chance to bag his eighth of the evening.

		The Lib Dems may attract many Muslim votes in Watford, as they did last year, but always voting on foreign policy matters is not the long-term answer to political participation for Muslims, especially when many must elevate themselves from disadvantaged surroundings.

	1988
		Watford's victory was a quite convincing one, and for a few months they looked certain to bounce straight back to Division One; in the end they finished a place behind Palace in fourth, and lost out in the play-offs, demonstrating what a very long season it is in the Second Division nowadays.
		It was intended that Dyer should play wide on the left, but he filled the gap on the right wing until Eddie McGoldrick's arrival, and his five goals in as many games included one direct from a corner to beat Birmingham, before injury put him out for the rest of the season.
		Also ruled out from then on was Geoff Thomas, who had justified the decision to appoint him as captain in only his second year, but whose insistence on maximum physical exertion for every minute of every game put him into hospital for a hernia operation.

		Watford Gap is the oldest motorway service area (MSA) in the country.
		After a long wait in the queue there, I purchased a Costa Coffee cappuccino - which, apart from being 10 per cent more expensive, was identical to the high-street product in all respects - and something called a “ham and three cheese tostato”, which was quite disgusting and carried nearly the same premium.
		Underneath the elevator music and sad Formica tables for the single traveller lies a remarkable government campaign, as old as Watford Gap itself, to make MSAs as grim as possible.
