I live on the outskirts of Winchester in Hampshire, lovely county and beautiful countryside, with excellent access to London and the south. |

I live in a small village in Snowdonia, near the sea, and I love it here. We don't have any of the major stores, supermarkets, DIY etc within 50 miles, but the small town 12 miles away provides most things. |

Now live in a small village in North Hertfordshire, which is great, although it did take me a while to get used to it. Originally from North London. |

No it is n't a particularly derogatory term. It is used in other parts of the country too. It certainly was in Sussex when I lived and worked there. |

Hi Julia, weather permitting OH and me are escaping to Portsmouth for new year. Better shops and prices than we have here. Mind you I am a little concerned at leaving daughters in house while we're gone, I can smell a party a mile away!!!! |

Catherine, Bit like that for us when we lived on a Scottish Isle, but no airports and airoplanes, just ferries. Island life, whilst generally idyllic, can become very insular at times |

I'm in Guernsey and its ok. Nice in summer but when winter arrives we get boats cancelled because of wind and airport closed due to snow and ice. Feeling a bit marooned, which might be nice if I was in Caribbean, lol. |
