Good to know I should be able to retire back to God's Own County when the time comes, then :y

Although the crime figures for Barnsley don't look too appealing (even Bracknell is significantly better with Barnsley on a par with Basinggrad!) :-X

Just looked at RightMove at Barnsley, wish I had not now. Can get some seriously big houses up there for peanuts compared to here.  :'(

But always a reason for these things, guess jobs and work is very different. Very limiting options for type of work I do that far up Norf  :(

Yes, Gav, could never aspire to the heady heights of Leeds.

Riverside apartments in Liverpool: gazing out across the Mersey, almost a mile wide, from a sturdy old tobacco warehouse apartment.
Riverside apartments in Leeds: gazing across the stream they call a river, right into the living room of the apartment across the 'river' from your cardboard and plastic box.  ;D

I need to sell up, I could buy four houses up Norf   :o ;D


But you will be sitting in a muddy wilderness in the dark, wondering how many potatoes translators cost

I looked at the statistics for Northampton too - that's worse than both!  :o

I'd rather be closer to the coast, anyway.. Brid would be nice, even though it's a bit chavtastic in summer.

You're not wrong - a colleague just put an offer in of £700k on a five bed end-terrace in Old Woking  :o

Thing is if employers were in any way sensible then you, and I, could easily work from home over the interwebs; I have a bunch of colleagues doing my old job remote (Anglesea, Tenerife, etc) but my new one for some reason has been decreed to be office based. Bah.

Being a wealthy old bastard I imagine you went to the estate agent and slapped the cash on the desk. :y. "We can't be doin wiv one of them mortgage things, I haven't got to where I am today by wastin my hard-earned brass on interest payments. I'll leave that kind of tomfoolery for them shandy drinking bed-wetting nancy boys  from down south"

Seriously though...... sounds like a good move. :y

One final thought. If it's a select area you're moving to the residents may ask you to keep the lurid green Astra out of sight. Lowers the tone of the neighbourhood you see.
