I got Oxford but after hearing what my dad has said about it, I never want to live there.

I liked Oxford, though I didn't actually live there, was only ever there for like a day at a time.


I got Gedling, where the absolute fuck is Gedling? :lol:

Wealden? Where the fuck is Wealden.

This rural district in South East England includes the Seven Sisters chalk cliffs. Its main towns are Crowborough and Hailsham


Erm. That definitely isn't me. I hate the countryside and dislike Southern England. Although it does seem to have a dodgy band in it. :lol:

Crowborough spawned Ania so it can't be all bad.

Oxford is lovely but the rent prices are astronomical and trying to get anywhere in the city is a nightmare with the tourists and the trillions of bikes!

Yes. But she was pretty quick leaving. :P

I would guess it's an area that is wonderful if you are over 60. :lol:


Never been to Oxford either. I'm going to have to do a tour of Southern England one of these days.

Yeah, the rent is fucking ridiculous anywhere in the county, nevermind in Oxford itself. The tourists were a bit annoying at times, but I never really saw that many bikes other than chained up outside the train station.

My main problem with Oxford is that damn pub on the river that looks lovely to sit outside on a sunny day and is apparently a pretty good bar. How the fuck do you get to it? You go to the bridge above it, walk down the hill, nope, just the river and a fence. I'm almost convinced you have to hire a boat to get to it :lol:

I've been down there. It's just that I seem to have only been to the less than salubrious places like London, Dagenham, Portsmouth, Southampton, Tilbury and Thanet rather than the nice places. :lol:

I got somewhere in the east Midlands, however it was only 8% better than here and I fucking hate it here.

No wonder you dislike the south! You only missed Basingstoke and Aldershot for the full house of particularly miserable southern towns.
