The thought of spending the rest of my life in the UK was simply intolerable.

It's in the West Mids. I did live there for a few months. Like most places around that way, it's a patchwork of decent areas and streets you'd never walk down at night.

Not much to recommend it; but not much to criticise, either. A sort of civic non-entity, to be honest.

Less people,
Better fishing,
Racially mixed society,

Just realized that this can be said about many countries...

Never had any inclinations for the US, Canada a bit too cold, other places...?

I think I moved here as it was relatively easy to get the visa.

And a good move it was.
