@hugo7 @chrisbmx116 @Soul @Howard @cornelius_blackfoot and everyone else this is all really useful, the thoughts people have expressed are generally how I've been feeling. I hadn't ever considered moving out of London for 7 - 1o years but I just kind of fell for this place. Its beaut and there are some awesome schools nearby and it's got lots of nice green stuff around.
I suppose my thoughts were similar to @Soul in that my partners parents would be 20mins away and lots her family there plus some of our best friends are relocating nearby in the next year and we both work near to KX. BUT the commute from the house to station really is what gets me.
I'm not worried about the affordability aspect so much - but the stress of working pretty intense jobs, moving to a place we don't know people, lots of travel etc would be a worry
