Or know anything about it?

Dh has been offered a position there, we’re from The North, I know nothing about the place!

You will probably have to elaborate ? Do you mean Milton Keynes ? There are a few Miltons in the UK.

PinkFootstool · 31/07/2023 09:00

Yeah, Milton to me is an area of Portsmouth!

IamSmarticus · 31/07/2023 09:06

I could probably help with Milton, Stoke-on-Trent Grin

Milton is a tiny hamlet in the middle of nowhere. Live somewhere bigger, and get DH to drive to work. Note, the lanes aren't big enough for a car and a tractor. Expect to wait in the hedge for farm traffic to pass.

Milton, in the countryside, in the South, I’m guessing it’s pricey?

The one near Cambridge has a nice country park.

LakieLady · 31/07/2023 09:10

Milton Abbas, Dorset? It's very pretty, but not a lot going on.

HappyHolidai · 31/07/2023 09:11

Milton near Didcot is v near A34

Wakingfartooearly · 31/07/2023 09:12

Near Somerset hotel I think!

You're going to have to be more specific. Which county? I know two Milton's.

poppym12 · 31/07/2023 09:28

There's also an area called Milton in Weston super mare.

Yamatoosogani · 31/07/2023 10:58

Yes, we live at Milton. Its lovely here.

Wakingfartooearly · 31/07/2023 13:52

@Yamatoosogani Is it a very wealthy? Can you possibly give me more information about the place at all?

You're going to need to be a bit more specific about the location. There are around 30 places in the UK called Milton. And about another 30 or so that start with the word Milton. Which one do you want to know about? If you don't know, perhaps saying where your husband has been offered a job would help (company/organisation).

JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon · 31/07/2023 14:01

Which county? There are many places called Milton.

It's a bit rude to expect people to respond on the off chance they have guessed the correct one. It is also risky, you could take advice from someone that is completely wrong because you are talking about different places.

Possimpible · 31/07/2023 14:04

Lol I thought you meant Milton in Glasgow. For your sake, I'm relieved you didn't

GladAllOver · 31/07/2023 14:05

This is the strangest request ever. "I don't know where this place is, but tell me about it" :)

Tiredmummaoftwo · 31/07/2023 14:07

Milton in Cambridge has a sewage works located next to its country park and it stinks. So I'd avoid that Milton.

reallypuzzledoverthis · 31/07/2023 14:08

Milton in Stoke on Trent is the temporary traffic light capital of the uk - don’t do it!

ErrolTheDragon · 31/07/2023 14:09

Wakingfartooearly · 31/07/2023 09:12

Near Somerset hotel I think!

There are probably even more hotels in Somerset than there are places called Milton. Confused
Find a postcode of somewhere in or near this place then you may get some helpful info.

FirstDayOfHoliyays · 31/07/2023 14:10

Fuck me OP, I don't think you're ready for this move

pepino · 31/07/2023 14:14

No Milton is horrible move to Richmond.

🤣🤣🤣

ClemmyTine · 31/07/2023 14:16

I hope you don't have to get there by yourself. Which Milton will you go to?

VisionsOfSplendour · 31/07/2023 14:23

Imagine your husband coming home and saying he been offered a job in a place you've never heard of, what's your first thought on how to find out about it?

Ask him where it is? Look it up in Google having found out where it is? Ask some strangers about it without telling them whee it is?

I'm going to suggest you dont leave The North 😀
