Just Being Curious.

[gness]

Quite unexpectedly I am now living where I've always wanted to but didn't think I would....
Are you content where you are or is there somewhere you dream about living...and if so why?

I think I’d like to move away, to somewhere less annoying. Never thought I’d want to go too far away from London, but after spending a few days away ‘oop Norf’, last year and then this week, I really think that I could just go. Mr RR, really not keen, though. So might have to leave him behind ;)

Plus you get Big Bang for your bucks up there.

Living with the parents isn't ideal but it's cost effective and helps me save a nice support for myself. So i'm living where i almost always have (moved out for a few months before) but actually really appreciating it more than i ever thought i would. I support myself i only have very cheap rent of parents no bills but pay for my own food and work van insurance / petrol etc.. (has to be petrol i make too many stops)

[rockyracoon]

God, just read that back, and think I sound old.

[spathiphyllum]

you sound about 35

[gness]

Ahhhh....he'd soon follow you, Rocky.... :-)

Bit like us moving here......an amazing house for much less than we sold for in the UK...but it wasn't that that made us move....although the lads who brought our furniture and saw what we have for the same price as they paid for a little terraced in England are now considering a move to Ireland!

[spathiphyllum]

Did you down size?

[rockyracoon]

Spath, if only.
TBH, I’m not sure I could leave my parents, who live round the corner, in case they need me as they get older. My mum would kill me for saying that.

[gness]

We don't get old, Rocky....we just mellow a little... :-)

Thought you lived with your....missus is it you call her, Spath?

[Samuraisan]

We have lived in the same toen for 43 years and would never want to live anywhere else. We have had 3 different homes, different sizes, throughout the years and now are downsizing, but same town, near our family, as they all live here, I couldn't even contemplate living elswhere and it is so lovely here.

Awaiting the BIG lottery win so I can move into my mansion with lots of grounds and folk to maintain it all.

I`m heading back to the Westcountry at some point in the not too distant future. It's nice to keep the dream on the backburner although when I`m there, I`m not too keen on the weather. Sometimes I think I`d just like to live abroad (not anywhere in Europe) because I need the sun and love hot climates.

[gness]

No, Spath...upsized with an acre of land.

Rocky.....bit of a different situation but I have been hanging around for my mum who is ninety six and in a home...Alzheimer's and knows nobody. Things changed for me this year and she will probably outlive me! So I thought.....to hell, girl.....get on with your life... :-)

Vancouver, Sunset Beach but I'm not saying why. It's too personal.

[spathiphyllum]

yeah she bunks gness! And oh my that's some garden many bushes? You should get a goat it will sort the grass out for you

[spathiphyllum]

I was thinking about getting a goat for the allotment but recently a chicken died and it impacted me quite emotionally it reminded me of a hamster i had as a young child and i know it's poultry but attachment can be a foul thing.

[rockyracoon]

I think once my kids have left home and settled themselves somewhere, I’d probably give it a lot more thought. At the moment though, I’ll be staying here. It’s not bad, but I want better.

[bobbie22]

I like living here very much. If I won the Lottery, I would not have a clue where to go. Would probably stay here

Tilly2 Vancouver, Sunset Beach

I have several cousins that live in the Vancouver area, I'll have to ask them about this Sunset Beach, Tilly.

[gness]

I think you're in Spain, Sam? And of course being close to family is lovely. Mine in the UK are pretty widespread now and we'll probably see more of them when they holiday in Ireland!

I'm not sure you'd like that, OG...except in your dreams......x

We fleetingly considered Portugal, 237...for the weather and we like the people.....but the south west of Ireland has always been where my heart is and so far it's bliss....even though there is the occasional shower... ;-)

Dream of a mixture of living in a campervan travelling the world (well some of it) and living on a cruise ship travelling the world...until I get bored and pine for the local WMC.
