Not quite as simple as that though is it? If money were no object I wouldn't have to think about how long my commute to work was because I wouldn't be working. Or consider how affordable property was in the dream area. But it has to be said, as compromises go, this is a pretty decent one.

I've lived in Dulwich pretty much all my life and wouldn't really want to move out of the area so a nice big house in the village would do me but if I did move out and money was no object I'd quite fancy number 3 Cheyne Walk (Keith Richards old house) on the Chelsea embankment and and weekend pile on the Kent/Sussex borders near the sea.

If there's still a points system, maybe because they don't have enough points.


I once looked into moving there but didn't meet the criteria because I was a) too old b) didn't have a zillion pounds savings and c) didn't have scarce skills. I think the only thing I got points for was my educational level :-$

Not England.


Definitely not England.


In fact nowhere on this piss drenched archipelago comes close to somewhere I would actually want to live if work, money and my family weren?t the motivating factors. Apart from London maybe for what it offers as a city but I?m over that now.


My own island in the Cyclades I think. With a surfable break and an island of ill repute close by so that I don?t get bored.

    • I had the same thing happen about a year ago... a couple of times in fact. I obviously react a lot less to posts than I used to because it has'nt happened again!
    • The link below has further information suggesting that the shop demolition and square redevelopment is funded separately from the station upgrades, so will go ahead:   https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/peckham-rye-stations-step-free-upgrade-has-been-put-on-hold-82360/ 
    • Last time the toilets were out of operation in the station M&S we were all told to go out and up to Sainsbo! Certainly didn't close (I'm not suggesting that's the thing the library should do!)
