I know exactly where that place is.

Seriously, though, could you take the bleakness and the isolation?

I love the bleakness, when it's bleak, and when it isn't bleak it's magical.

I positively yearn for the isolation. I'd have some sheeps and possibly a dog, and might go for days without seeing another human being save the glw :cloud9:

I get that, but will you like isolation and bleakness as much when they're not a choice, but are forced upon you by location?

You get depressed by cold, dark winters in Kent, mate. What are you going to be like after six months on the fûcking crag in a place where you still get frosts in June?

I won't be working so I'll simply fúck off somewhere warmer. Although I'll be skint, so it'll have to be somewhere warmer and cheaper.

Admittedly, my plan needs a slight fettle.

I've stayed in Threkeld. Very handy for Blencathra.

No shops though. Had to walk several miles into Keswick and back along the disused railway line to buy a sandwich for lunch. Lovely walk, tbf.

Did you know that Chiswick used to be spelled Ceswick?

I'll get you one of these as a going away present.

That is a lovely walk. The one that starts/ends by the leisure centre?

I'm actually considering somewhere around Penrith, even a little east. Just outside the national park bit, prices are ridiculously cheap and you've got it all on your doorstep.

Sorry I didn't know that about Chiswick. Mind you, to the best of my knowledge I've never been to Chiswick. Keswick has the best Booth's, though.

Good butcher in Penrith. Did lamb & apple sausages that were surprisingly delicious.

I am going to exercise droit de seigneur over the locals when I live here.

Fùck me that's cheap. :yikes:

Mind you, have you seen the state of Cumbrian women? I'd rather take my chances with the sheep.

I'm hardly retiring and moving up norf to go on the pull, b.

Oh, I was just referring to your 'droit de seigneur' comment. I thought you were planning to throw your leg over the various local maidens.

A bloody good tyre repair place too. Have needed it twice. :-(

I like Chiswick. Probably my favourite part of West London to wander around. Can't get a decent breakfast though unless you literally step over the border into Hammersmith.

Not sure. I was going to say the railway station but ....

Oh I see what you mean. Yes, silly of me. To be honest, there don't appear to be any young Cumbrian people left in Cumbria. It would appear that all the young people have fúcked off elsewhere, perhaps in search of jobs, leaving a vacuum to be filled by Romanian and Polish young people to do the jobs of which there are none. Pardon?

That's right. The old railway station is there with a car park that also serves the leisure centre/swimming pool

I've been looking at the pics of that place. If you buy it, do you get to keep the pictures of ancient ancestors in armour? You could be like Edwin Flawse in The Throwback :cloud9:

Too right. And I'll buy one of those titles like yanks do.

just outside of London in the green belt. On the mainline in. Nice place.
