Relocation advice

Jaywick ,nice Essex village ,think it's fairly cheap

Strood, Chatham, ,gillingham, gravesend ,hoo  . Strood has a mainline straight up to town. Bit of a shit hole but it’s liveable. Still not silly cheap tho.

If it were me I'd be looking out towards Basingstoke or Newbury, rent a room. Easy hour into London. Hope it works out for you.

Game farm work or delivery driving then maybe south Norfolk,north Suffolk and it's not to long on a train to London and deffo nicer than the other shit holes talked about,lol..

[gnasher16 30,535]

As some of the lads have said theres no point going to Essex or Kent you might as well stay where you are the time it takes to get across London a better bet would be places like Reading,Farnborough even up towards High Wycombe all within an hour of West London i should think.....surprisingly cheap property along the M4/M40 there as well.

Peterborough, know a few lads who live that way and work daily in London , an hour on train mate. No hassle.

Don’t know where you are in Lancashire but some days you’d drive down nearly as quick as you’d drive from Essex/Kent to Acton…..Acton is a pure pain in the arse to get to from those places.

You would be better off taking a line back up the M1/A1 or M4 towards where you are now mate.

How about going to euston by train wilf from say kent as that's what I do I don't actually have to go into acton but in saying that if I do manage to get an extra day mid week with the boys it would be difficult to get them to school in the morning

To get from the south side of London to the west side of London is a pure epic anyway you do it mate.

Out the west side of London is your best bet, honestly.

I went to Essex from just outside west London this morning,West is best,London today is a nightmare (having a nice meal in the west end at the moment).

Gnasher mentioned high Wycombe...I've spent a good few months over the last year working there...in your case Dodger there's a good few shooting estates around ...and the large Village of Beaconsfield next to high Wycombe is a lovely place ..although I expect it's pricey for property...

Tadley is set up for room rentals due to Aldermaston awe . It's also police and pikeys . Decent swimming pool and supermarket and a few smaller shops and takeaway.
