...where would you choose?

Getting bored of Manchester and have yearnings for somewhere more fun. Quite fancy New Zealand

(Admittedly this will probably last until I get my next pension statement and realise I'm going to have £4.36 a year to live on when I hit 65...and therefore need to work every second between now and then - and probably supplement things with a sideline in bank jobs and heists )

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I'm happy living in London, more or less where I am.

I would like a place in Lyme Regis too though.

OP, my pension statement arrived this week. Now that we can take it as lump sum I've decided I can have one really good year and then I need to die.

I'd quite like to live in San Francisco, New York, Canada, London and Manchester.

In my more introspective moments I also consider Nepal, Greenland and India. As a treat to myself, I'm planning a trip to Nepal volunteering when I finish my degree next year, so we'll see how that goes before I think about a more permanent move!

I've lived in the same house since May 1949. However I spent 40 years at sea and visited many far flung places and the only place I would choose to live if I didn't live here would be New Zealand.

I definitely would NOT want to live in Australia and find it difficult to understand why so many people go on about it. They've obviously never visited New Zealand

Couldn't agree more, dude; the only thing that Australia has that NZ hasn't, apart from some of the central & northern aboriginal lands, which hardly anyone visits, tourists or otherwise, is a huge mother of an almost uninhabitable dessert!!

Okay, maybe I'm a little biased

Oh, & Australia is full of bloody Ozzie's, too!!!"

Wash your mouth out!

Malvern.

Hills to walk in. Great pubs etc. A fair few local fab members. My gym is across the park and a lovely lady friend (ex fabber) lives at the end of my road...... Think I will stay put.

I've always fancied 6 months a year somewhere like the Caymans or Oz when it's our winter and then summer in this country . I'd like a home both where I am and in Devon when over here. I don't really want much!

Key west in Florida,on a hurricane vulnerable houseboat. The lifestyle there,is as laid back as a horizontal thing having a nap.

55,mortgage done,house up for sale,tell the kids to be good and see you later !

Though I'll probably be walking round B&Q,in an orange pinny,telling people that B&Q paint is marvellous,but only till I'm 81.

"I'm happy living in London, more or less where I am.

I would like a place in Lyme Regis too though.

OP, my pension statement arrived this week. Now that we can take it as lump sum I've decided I can have one really good year and then I need to die.
