And then of course Royal Tunbridge Wells....but your cash will not stretch as far....but I think now we're straying into the nice village areas around there and you were wanting more urban areas in the Midlands!! It must be difficult settling on an area. Are your family from that area? Have you thought about what you want to do upon your return to the UK? Or are you pretty much open minded as to wherever you end up?

Most of my family and friends are based in the London area, which is why I didn`t want to go any further north than the midlands but in general I am pretty open to most areas, I suppose my only concern like most is to find somewhere that has low crime and adequate transportation links. Admittedly I do like the sound of Maidstone as it has low crime and also has good transport links, it maybe an alternative to going to the midlands where a lot of my research as been done on.
