That sounds like heaven! I live in Birmingham which isn't great for a country girl.

I'm a transplanted Londoner - we've been in Yorkshire for about 10 years and I'm still getting used to village life which is much, much slower and can be really frustrating. On the other hand I don't think I could ever go back to city living, just visiting cities makes my head spin nowadays - even Sheffield which is dinky.

I'm up in the North East, but moving to London this summer for a year :D

I nearly said *In a village* but we're between two villages, a few miles from York. North Yorkshire born and bred!

I lived in Birmingham for 20 years. Now I'm home I'll ever leave Yorkshire ever again! I hated living in a city!

sarahgrace 04-24-2007 04:36 PM

I've done the opposite Birmingham to york then back! Which bits of birmingham Phat and doughnut?

Doughnut 04-24-2007 04:47 PM

Ooh - I lived in York once too but only for a year. I loved it - that's my idea of a city if you have to live in one.

Norf London - Finchley,

However I used to live in Gainford in County Durham, which is between Darlington and Barnard Castle.

THEN my inconsiderate parents moved to Goathland (where they film Heartbeat dontcha know) and I kinda used that as a base for the end of school/Uni years. I can't ever say I really "lived" there as I was always somewhere else during term time!

I used to live in South Ken for Uni, then Egham in Surrey, then Hounslow, mighty Hounslow (I really liked it there) and now Norf London. :p

I went there as a student, and lived in Moseley - then after uni, stayed and lived in Bartley Green for years, then Kings Heath. Our house in Bartley Green was a council house, but it was an old Victorian terrace, not on an estate and had a massive garden with a field behind and the country park opposite so it didn't feel so much like living in a city. We later lived in Kings Heath. Handy for the shops but we didn't want our kids to grow up there - they couldn't go out and play, etc and we had a tiny garden in our last house (and an alcoholic living next door screaming 'Danny Boy' and swear words at 3am!)

Where's you in Brum?

flowerfairy2B 04-25-2007 06:07 AM

hey phatphoenix thats sounds like our latest house weve only been here 4 months and talk about children out destroying things late at night and the language,we hate it and will be moving again,we decided after 2 months it wasnt for us,my children dont go out and play and havnt been bought up to be streetwise like the children round here,we feel like we are in prison,its a brand new estate but its the children from all the surrounding areas use this new area as their playground late at night and they are like animals let loose.Im so unhappy at the mo,we all our savings into this and it hasnt worked out,its awful,we will loose so much money by moving and will have to go into renting but Iv gone past caring I just want to be happy again and my family be happy.ok rant over by the way im from HEREFORD born and bred.
