    Its Fleet+Hook, north east Hampshire. I currently work in Hook, and my suspicions about the area is that the Chav quota is very low. Otherwise its pretty boring London commuter belt.

    Saying that it is in my top 5 list of areas to move to, along with Winchester and Chandlers Ford.

      My old boy lived in Yateley for years. Nice enough but fooking boring.
      Apparently that rates quite highly.

        West country la la la west country la la la, I'll take countryside, coastline, peace and cider over anything the SE has to offer, anywhere east or north of Gloucestershire is undesirable in my book.

                Ahhhh cornwall, if money were no object and I had to choose a place in the UK i'd still be there .....


                However the only downside with the west country is there isnt many services southwest of plymouth, lower wages/less jobs and emmits galore, knicking all the good homes .... sodding emmits with their buckets of sand .... pahhhhh

                  IIRC, aren't there a lot of army bases out that way?

                      But what would Cornwall be like if the emmits didn't come?
