I visited Liverpool and loved it but one thing is visiting one thing is living there...never been to manchester ....love cambridge ely stratford upon avon ...i know bristol but it didnt give me the I love it vibe .... any suggestions very appreciated ! I can move with my job and i am not buying until next autumn ... budget 250.000/270.000 I would prefer a city or a bigger town by the sea even better xx
