Default Where would You live

I'm still thinking, and after 1.25 inches of rain yesterday, and the
forecast of possibly 2 inches tonight to go with gale force winds, I
just wish money was no object.
So where would you move to?

I've thought about this question a few times on a "what if I won the
lottery" basis, though that would be difficult as I don't play.

But, given the choice, I'd stay just where I am (though I'd try to buy
the field next door). Good neighbours, nice friendly pubs and a good
Indian restaurant plus a range of shops within walking distance,
little crime (touching wood) in the area and weather's not bad really.

Years ago, someone I know had a cartoon hung on their lounge wall. A
field divided into four quarters and, in each, a couple of cows poking
their heads (all clockwise) through the fences to eat the grass on the
other side.

Cheers, Jake
