:I think the map will be a lot smaller, since the competition is to end in one month. Maybe 3x4 or 4x4? We already know that it will be at least 3x3 (district names "<cardinaldirection> Borehamwood", but there is also Elstree, which is located southwest from Borehamwood. --[[User:Tybalt Peroni|Tybalt Peroni]] 11:45, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

:South B also starts at x=544, (unsurprisingly) directly east of SW B. --[[User:Tybalt Peroni|Tybalt Peroni]] 16:11, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
::I have aligned South B suburb map so that location1 starts at 544-66, but I'm running out of the 10x10 grid to the south. I'll rest a bit and try to find southern border. --[[User:Tybalt Peroni|Tybalt Peroni]] 16:19, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Petrol stations contain fuel cans. I know. Amazing. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 13:19, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 
==CCTV==
 
Not sure if this is unique to Borehamwood, but it's the first time I've noticed them.
 
{{udspan|In an unlit side room, you can see a darkened CCTV console.}} inside Grinter Terrace Police Station.
 
{{udspan|Mounted on the walls of the building are several CCTV cameras.}} outside Bewsey Grove Police Station.
 
{{udspan|A defunct cashpoint machine has a CCTV camera mounted above it.}} outside Haselshaw Bank.
 
I guess they are most likely just for flavor purposes. - [[User:Whitehouse]] 14:29, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
:There was one outside the O'lEary building as well.--{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 14:34, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
::I've seen several of them as well, with CCTV consoles mostly in police stations. A wild idea is, that once they are powered, we will be able to peek inside of the Big Brother house (check wikipedia for Dead Set episodes short synopsis, in one of them a character from outside does just that. Although, this being CCTV system, it will probably only monitor few nearby cameras. --[[User:Tybalt Peroni|Tybalt Peroni]] 16:09, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
 
:::I think I found one in a street --[[User:William2|William2]] 16:53, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
