I'm from Manchester and have been living in SE with my wife (who's a stinkin cockney) for a decade.
We considered a move back when we found out we were having a baby, but TBH since the BBC went north MCR is LDN pricesEdinburgh for us when the push comes to the shove.
Got loads of lovely friends and business contacts up there. Could step into a job with the same salary but 60% of the expenditure.

Have lived in South East London all my life, the wife's from Manchester and moved down nearly 16 years ago, last 5 or so years we talked about moving up to Manchester but with one thing and another this didn't go to plan. So last January we decide to take a year out and go travelling and then consider where to move to next. Pretty sure it will be back in the UK but somewhere on the coast. Huge leap of faith for me and I'm bricking it if I'm honest. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger and all that.
