Moving back Norf

[Mary Hinge]

Any of the Cockney Mackems cashed in the equity and done it?

Regrets?

 

[Grammar Police]

Less traffic, fewer Cockneys and a boat load of cash in the bank, what's to regret?

Cheaper pints, great beaches and countryside, can get to more home games, plus what you pay for a flat down south can get you a 3 or 4 bed house up here.

 

[Paddy O'Dors]

Aye, back in 2003. Lasted 9 years before I done a Dick Whittington and chased the dollar again but still back on a regular basis.

Okay if you are in a decent paid job , fantastic if your lass is in one too. Its got everything you need, its just the lack of jobs, low paid jobs and the public transport ( in some areas ) that is the only problem. There are two North Easts though, living in an urban area with decent pubs, schools, restaurants , transport etc is totally different to living in a village like Horden , Craghead or Trimdon.

Aye.....ye can go for a swim eh?

It's 10' warmer doon here, things holding me back, kids in very good state school, opportunities for them when they leave, even though they won't be able to buy a Fookin flat.......

Good schools up here too, once they have left school/6th form they can Nash off to uni or even go to a uni up here.

 

[Caer_Urfa]

I recommend everyone down south to do it. The North East is the best place in England and one of the finest in the world.

For the price of a 1 bed London flat where the bog doubles up as a kitchen, you could get a lovely 4 bed home in Cleadon.

Aye I knaa, but no 1 daughter just into big school and talks posh, so she'd get battered up there.....

Move west then, they talk posh in Devon, the air is clear and the climate is better than London.

 

[mickyw]

I'm surprised there hasn't been any 'Less stabbings and muggings etc etc' comments

The North East is the best place to live in England in my eyes, I understand that many won't see it that way though

Dinnit be daft man, she'll be fine.
