Not wishing to sound like "If France or Germany are so great, why don't you frak off there", but if France and Germany are so much better than the UK, why are you based here and on in either of those two countries?

Technically, I am based the other side of the Atlantic and not in the UK. However, if I was then I would not seriously consider anywhere other than London. I would never consider anywhere in the UK outside London.

Just supposing a virtual business that could be run anywhere. In mainland Europe, I'd be thinking something like the South of France, somehwere nice in the sun and by the sea.
