If you go out of my road there is a main road, which if you follow will either take you to Wigmore Valley Park, which is an enormous playing field that sits directly next to the airport. It is used mainly in the summer where you would have families with picnics, fun and games and people walking their dogs. If you go the other way you will be taken to the local supermarket, ASDA. Which is the second busiest attraction in my area, next to the airport. The supermarket consists of everything you could think of from designer clothes, ready cooked food as well as your every day shopping. It also has a music and video store which has a number of top of the chart products as well as a large archive of old music and videos. And all of this at exceptionally low prices.
If you go slightly further than ASDA then you will reach Ashcroft area, this is where my School is. My school is an I.T communications college which means that its main interest is I.T. Every student has an identification code which is used in Exams and also allows you to access your own personal file on the I.T network. The school also caters for all of the other national qualifications such as Science, Maths, English, Languages, Humanities, Arts and Physical Education. The school also provides a school diner; this can be eaten in the main hall if you are in no rush and want a nice lunch, or you can eat in the cafeteria for fast food. There is also a number of vending machines for snacks at break.

There is also a multi feature amusement zone called the Galaxy, this consists of an eleven-screen cinema complex, a ten lane bowling area and an arcade.

number of offices and factories that have been there for a very long time, they are referred to as the twilight zone. There are also a number of nightclubs and popular pubs for those in need of a little bit more mature fun. On a Saturday night the town centre would be swarming with young clubbers up for a good night, trouble quite often occurs though as a lot of the younger people take advantage of their alcoholic rights.
Last of all Luton has its own football club, once of the premiership, but now they are in division two. Their ground is in the town centre and there are a number of jobs made by the football ground, from catering staff and the ticket office to coaching and kit sponsers.
