Most like to become an expat
Are you more likely to become an expat if you are from certain areas in Blighty or is it just coincidence that half the bored is made up from scots and geordies? so where are you from?

Wasn't sure if Wiltshire was part of the Cider belt, so went for somewhere else.

Oi!
Well....ok, I did live in Richmond for a couple of years as a child.
But we're Somerset people thick and through.

Re: Most like to become an expat
Not 'where' exactly
A 'posh kent' is a saying oft muttered by salt of the earth ruffians in the hostelries at the top end of the Old Kent Road, such as the Gin Palace at Elephant and Castle, when referring to a member of the upper class.
'that posh kent has got a bi-plane at Biggin Hill'
