I dont see it as running away, but making a fresh start, making good changes and getting to know another part of the country and new people. It wont be easy after so long here but sometimes we need a new challenge and to be stretched.
I have no idea why anyone would remain in a town they hate all their lives. I have lived in places I didnt like and I got out as soon as I could. Its seems such a waste of life to do that ralf.
There are so many nice parts of the country to live in, I have been researching many of them. So many lovelY market towns (which is where I want to live) and villages.
