Anyone had a go at this test reported on the BBC website? Results of few question based on your personality then compared to results of a nationwide study, give you the best and worst places to live.

Obviously to be taken with a large pinch of salt, but apparently I'd be happiest in South Norfolk! I'll stick with East Dulwich.

PS I took the test and there was only 10% difference between the best and worst places for me to live - not worth the cost of moving house. And of course it didn't factor in the misery of the commute I'd have getting back to the city to do my job from South Cambridge which would wipe out the 6% supposed improvement in happiness (there's no work in my industry round there)

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
