    True. But I don't want to buy a house down south. Rent and earn some good money ..

      What skills have you got that are leading to poorly paid rates? It might be worth looking at those and seeing what you can do to command a better rate than the ones that you are getting at the moment. I've seen some tasty rates in Lancashire and Yorkshire (albeit in Doncaster), or you could always look at working from home if you have the right kind of skills.
      I'm into Cloud AWS & DevOps with emphasis on Linux, Java. Very few contracts in the north for these skills.
