Can we organise a Sun Pipeline? 'Cause packing it in brown paper is going to be a problem.
Serious fiber optics may be necessary...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Would you really consider moving to a place you can't even pronounce???

The city we're looking at I can pronounce very well thanks, we've visited many times and like it; hence thinking of getting a bolthole there.

And if it's in the UK, it rules out gay Pari with a butthole bolthole overlooking the Hilton...
So, don't keep us in suspense - Where are you looking?

I know that I'm far too poor for you to consider living anywhere near me.
Weren't you looking Nottingham way recently or did I dream that? You've never struck me as a big enthusiast of gun crime so I cannot imagine why you would.

As our budgie isn't too big, we can't afford dan-saf so we're having to look North and West [but not as far as Northwest and the hubcap stealing scouse b'tards]
Prices are funny, some places we thought would be expensive are relatively cheap and others are way overpriced. My take on it is that prices go up for any reason, but nothing brings them down again. Rural is good, city centre is good, no shops or too many shops push up the price, new build or old plots are both at a premium. The housing market in the UK is like a Sunday morning dockside hooker after the fleet just landed...

Mostly it's a question of trend. Near Turin (Italy) going North small houses cost a freaking lot while going South the prices tend to lower. Despite the climate and terrain being much better on the South side, as on the North it is highly probable that when it snows you'll be locked home due to high pendence hills and higher precipitations. Also public transportation is way less dense and organized, the humudity is barely tolerable and the houses are ancient.
But North is trendy because it's closer to Sestriere, Bardonecchia and Ceresole, notable skiing locations. Also the first escapees from the city moved there and created a huge mystique about the place while almost everyone who moved South downplayed a lot - mostly to not being invaded by city-dwellers. Yes we of Asti are a bit aloof and wary...

Not just Luton but the whole of Bedfordshire is being avoided due to high levels of crapacity.

I did take a look at the prices of pipelines.
So I wondered, who's living in Fife?

Welcome! Your moving to Israel would probably increase the sanity levels in both the U.K. and Israel.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
--Winston Churchill

Sadly not Israel. My wife spent four years there before we met though and keeps nagging that we visit at some point.
