American in Bedford. Life story aside, how does one make friends? I wasn't even good at it back home, and now they've made me a parent governor. If that's my only social outlet, I'm terrified I'll become some kind of weirdo normal person.

Are there any esoteric cultists, dangerous outlaws, or menaces to society about that I can buy a drink for?

Biggleswade is a decent little town. Had a bit of a problem with stabbings a while back, but seems to have calmed down. And there are some great little restaurants in there.

A lot of the villages and smaller towns around it are extremely charming.

For the airshow, are you thinking of the ones they have at the Shuttleworth Museum nearby? That's where a lot of the spitfires that buzz around in the skies ~~cube~~ come from.

It has been awhile since i was there, base has since been shut. But there was an old Priory on the grounds that was used for the fair/airshow and i had no idea where the planes flew out of (Chicksands was a "electronic intercept" base, no flight line).
