  • You work in TV innit? I can put you in contact with some friends at perform/dazn. We went through the let's move to Leeds thing a couple of years ago and stayed in Hebden Bridge for a week. Lovely countryside but not for us in the end. Isn't the Calder valley so deep there that there are people that don't get any sunlight some months of the year? Sumfink like that.

  • Thanks. I'm a front end developer, apparently Leeds is decent for tech jobs, I guess I'll find out when actually applying for them. I think we'll aim for Chapel Allerton but maybe Kirkstall or Morley area so not too villagey, it's been a while since I've been in that area of the country though. Are you still up in Leeds?

  • Are you doing it because its just easy to leave via NW London (where you are right now)?

  • I just got offered a remote FE role, company is based in London so London salary, going to move to Bristol in July!

    I didn't have to look very hard, I bet there is more out there.

  • No mate we ended up back in NW London. Remember I bought that amp of you not long ago! Think Chapel Allerton is where my friend moved to, traded his 3 bed in Buckinghamshire somewhere for a 5 bed up there. Best of luck tho dude. Do like those old houses up there.

  • Chapel Allerton is nice just don't mistake Chapeltown for it. Two very different areas on each others doorstep.

    Kirkstall is studentville but have a look at Horsforth which is further out to the west.

    Morley... Well the nightclub back in the day was amazing when it was The Orbit and Sven Vath used to play there but it can be a bit odd on the weekend.

    On the whole North and West Leeds is good, avoid South and East Leeds unless you like prostitutes and drugs.

    City Centre bars are great for real ale.

  • Sister lived in Chapel A until a couple of years ago. Tis nice.
