I didn't notice you were in Cork. Some beautiful places in Ireland to visit, I know.

Yes, London - my hometown, although I live in Norfolk now - is really expensive but you can find cheaper accommodation if you go a but further out. Anywhere inside the M25 is reasonably well set-up for transport. And there are lots of places to visit and things to do that won't cost a fortune. I think you can fly to London City Airport from Cork, I'm reasonably sure. I know the flight from London City to Dublin takes less than an hour. Hope you decide to give it a go.

Thanks for that Livia, Cork actually has direct flights to Stansted Heathrow and Luton and only takes about an hour so it's quite handy that way, I'm definitely going to go for it in the new year

I love living in London. I have been to Dublin, but would love to visit Cork. Maybe in spring.

Great that you are enjoying London Vanessa, Regarding Cork it is quite a nice place and a lot of people who visit say they prefer it than Dublin not to mention It is far cheaper, I am not from the city myself, I live in the middle of nowhere around an hour away. I would definitely recommend visiting anyway

…it’s funny how quite often, if we live in the middle of nowhere…?…we can long for a more social city/town etc life…to have that activity and buzz…?…but then for some who have that, they can long for middle of nowhere life……to have that away from it all/quiet place….we humans are strange old creatures…wishing you well on your travelling adventures next year, Kev…small steps will lead to big steps or hopefully wherever you want them to lead…
