There’s no Covid here and hasn’t been for about 3 months now, people who come into the island have to isolate for two weeks and then they’re tested. But because there’s only one flight a day now there’s a max of 80 people coming into the island at any one time, so the states pay for testing. Obviously if people had to pay for it themselves I imagine they’d be much more reluctant to do so.
ah right, so how did you end up on Guersney, beautiful as it looks I can imagine it can get a bit quiet at times

HOWEVER I am a fully trained pharmaceutical dispenser so that’s a useful qualification for me in the middle of a pandemic. ALSO oomf has a business and says there’s a job there if I need it
tbh yeah that does sound like enough to convince the letting people you're not gonna screw 'em over and turn into a squatter:) though it might be an idea to ask your friend if s/he can put the offer in writing, just so you have something to show the agents.

Only a little because it's part of the fun when you're young. But it's a little part, because Manchester is really nice city overall. I thought the people were more open than in London, more caring too. The music scene was nice, and loads of good places to eat! It's one of those cities you need to embrace totally, it can be a lot to take in sometimes:joker:

Definitely, I’ve been to both London and Manchester a handful of times in people in Manchester are always so much politer than in London. People in London are far too pretentious

I love that you embraced all it has to offer :laugh:
When were you here? I agree there is plenty for everyone in Manchester and despite what DouglasS said in another thread about people being rude people in general are friendly, Mancs will treat you as you treat them...be an arse and get treated like that but if you're friendly so will they be. Glad you found them like that too :love:

I did an internship there in 2011, I stayed for 6 months. I had a blast!
University wanted to send me to London but I've lived there before so I said "oh no! send me to the North!" :joker: The local Uni rugby team I trained with helped me discover A LOT of places! :laugh:

Yeah, it would have been 8 years in September :shocked: but it’s all very amicable, so I’m hopeful that once I’m gone we can still stay friends and in contact.

Hope your move is a good one.

I live in Manchester also and I’m just speaking from my
Experience :shrug:

People in Manchester are a lot more ruder than down south - in my opinion

I will be looking to move when the pandemic is over

I don’t have much experience of the city but my friend lived in Salford last year and her flat was really nice
