We are about to complete on buying a house (too late to back out now!) and I am so worried we have done the wrong thing. The house in in wimbledon park which is a lovely area - park, loads of families, nice shops and cafes, nice primaries, but still only 15 mins into Waterloo! I work part time in central London and so wanted a really easy commute as I am not a super mum - need to keep things as simple as possible hence wanting to live somewhere which means hubbie gets home at a decent hour, my commute is great and we're near family.
So it all sounds perfect and that is why we chose it, but it seems like every other mum I meet is moving out of London. So I feel so doubtful - we thought it seemed like a great place to live but everyone else seems to think that once you have a baby it's time to move to Guildford! Have we made the wrong choice? Will we regret it in a year and wish we were out of London? Would be interested to know if anyone is in the same boat...worried that we have now tied ourselves into a house and will suddenly realise that we should have left london too.
