Re: Head south if you want a better life
The article merges the benifits of different places down South? So South is best because Cornwall has great weather and you can benifit from Londons cafe culture? Well argued that.
I like it where I live because I can see pick the beautiful scottish heather in the spring and they do a great curry in Birmingham.

Re: Head south if you want a better life
imho, the quality of life is better "oop north", just as it is in areas like the New Forest, Cornwall, Canterbury - just saying "North" and "South" is (again, imho) too generalised.
They should be comparing quality of life in between cities and country areas, not above and below an arbitrary line drawn across the country.
btw, lager tops is just another name for shandy.

Re: Head south if you want a better life
Hey you lot. Stop telling the soft southerners that it's great up North.
Having them believe in the myth that it always rains in Manchester, we all live in dank back to back terraces and go to work at the mill in clogs, keeps them out of our hair.
If they realised the true state of the UK above the Watford Gap then they might start invading us..

I am sad to say that my move to Surrey from Oldham in the nineties
was the best move I ever made.

Re: Head south if you want a better life

Is that the one that refuses to go south of Watford because 'it's too hot, and anyway the beer tastes like horse p**s'?
