I'd like to be back in London.  There's something about the city that is in my blood.  Where I live now is quiet and lovely but it's not London.  If I could find a place closer to the city without a horrid commute, I'd move closer in.
Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poorhouse. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its doors as early in the spring. Cultivate property like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old; return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts…

I spent an afternoon in Bath today and it was absolutely ideal. Perfect weather, charming cafes and shopping and enough unusual locals about to keep the place interesting.. Ive househunted there but it was way out of affordability, sadly. :-\\\\
