Reasons for leaving your current location



& 9.....The Prestonville Arms is a hideout for elitist quizzers!!!!
Have they got rid of the bar billiards table? I used to spend hours playing, when I lived in Stanford Road.

What side of Hamilton Road do you live on? I used to have friends who lived in a flat in Hamilton Road with superb views over half of Brighton. You'd be crazy to give that up.

Way out west
Was at the races back in May, a couple of days before we played Chelts, was the moment that it really sunk in how beautiful Gloucestershire is and how good a decision it was to come here in the first place...not a bad second to living in Sussex!

Why would I want to leave? I live in big house (I'd only be able to afford a shoebox elsewhere), have fantastic views, good neighbours, can almost drink the clean air, have plenty of places for the kids to play (with a short walk to the school and nursery) and am just a 25 minute bus ride from the town centre and beach.

As I said on the other thread, I could do with a decent boozer and the commute to London does get a bit of a pain but this is about the best place I've lived and have no intention of moving.

1) Council Tax up - Services poorer than before (Thank you, Labour)
2) Litter
3) Parking chaos
4) Dodgy folk hanging around the 'placement house/shelter'
5) The smell of Uncle Sam's almost 24/7 (Gets very boring)
6) Seagulls squawking at sundown on my window ledge
7) Incompetent Dustmen that put more rubbish on the streets than in the truck.

To be fair BoF, with most of those points, you're going to be stuffed anywhere in Sussex.

It's just a bit too far from anywhere. All shops and train stations are a car/bus ride away and it's a fair walk to the nearest bus stop. It also suffers from horse manure everywhere and at weekends cyclists entusiastically urging you to 'get the f*** out of the way'.

Interestingly, I am more than ready to leave Cheltenham now-

It has its good points...its very pretty and has an easy pace to life.

BUT, if you have ANY interest in anything other than spending money in the high street or fighting at night you're probably in for a bit of a shock.

Its not as wonderful as the rest of the country seems to think.

dunno I'm lost
I'm leaving this lovely quiet village I live in because they are trying to build a 'community stadium' here. There is going to be hoards of thuggish, moronic townies descending on our beautiful haven on a regular basis, like a plaugue of dirty, scarf wearing locusts. I'm moving to Lewes, where I will feel safe. :)

Hither (sometimes Thither)
I'd most liked to have had a lengthy forage in another's body. Root around the undergrowth for a brief period, questing seeds and water and common whispers any bodytop breeze so gently hums, investigate the blotches and blemishes and trolls all woodlands carry no matter their depth. Then roll myself on and over each organ. I'd enjoy holding a close eye to another's from inside, feeling the nerves rumble and fizzle, perhaps hoping i could witness from within their sights but upside down or in reverse. Be nice to firmly grasp an artery for seconds as my imaginary head rests on upspeeded heart, the beats all screams and wimpers that something's amiss, or that maybe the closest love of life or wife just perished. The liver could be examined briefly, mentally chopped and pastried, but lavished with lust and compassion as all soon-to-die chunks of edible life most surely are. The gonads i'd stay clear of as mystery is sometimes best kept, more alluring than the grim funcationality of dangling mirth. At my visit's end i'd loom around another's brain, digging and excavating and polishing and probing and reading and advising and criticising and blessing and flagging points of interest i might like to see again if ever i chanced my way inside.
Someone else would be ideal to stay in for some time. How long i don't know, and how i'd get there i remain unaware of, but to wheel myself into another's workings, crying and guffawing at daily operations and whichever motor neuronic clock i noticed that had the lifespan so clearly dabbed and ticking away would be enough to take a break one summer from me.
