You must be joking. The only place you can get to

easily is London and who, in their right mind, wants to go there. I'm looking to move to Lancashire in the Preston area. I couldn't believe the infrastructure there - you can get to virtually everywhere on a motorway - 1hr to Lakes, 1hr to Dales, 40mins to Manchester, 50mins to Liverpool, 45 mins to the coast, 2 hrs to Snowdonia. And, unlike CAmbridge, there's s**t loads to do everywher.
