I went a bit manic a week or so ago, and decided the best thing for the whole family would be to move to Scotland and by the beach (we live near London.) I found a place, asked for more information (I am rapid bipolar so this never last as long) It just seemed like such a great idea. Of course coming down, and the further down, of course it wasn't, but if I am going to be honest, this idea seemed to be just stuck there and a week later after I have leveled is still there.

But ignoring the fact we can't afford to move at the moment, DP has an elder son, who lives 10 minutes down the road and he refuses to move much further. Now I could be a bitch and go fine, I am off, but then I am potentially removing his youngest DS from him, or buggering off without my son. The move is just impossible at the moment.

However the idea refuses to leave.

What about coastal Essex or East Anglia? Still the sea but nearer?

I think the thing is we are settled here, but I know the landlady is looking at selling in the next year. And we need something, we can't afford anything here anymore.

There are just so many problems, with looking now, but not looking soon enough.
