Same here. The peace and quiet of country life. We did have a brief chance to experience it 20 years ago. The only sounds that would wake us up were from deer, racoons, and the occasional bear. Oh how I wish we could have stayed there, but in reality it was too far from the nearest hospital and with ShaggE's asthma and my heart, it was wiser to be closer to the city.Yes, the grass is always greener - i consider you the lucky one!

You wouldn't say that if you lived here Barry. It's 12am on Monday morning and I've only seen one car pass since 7.30, Oh and an old lady on a push bike. I took Mr Rufus for a walk at 10am and it was like being on the set of Survivors, no wonder I'm on medication !DiVicenzo wrote: Yes, the grass is always greener - i consider you the lucky one!

Sounds like we have one extreme each
Considering where I live - on the main London to Brighton road - it's not too noisy here actually
And, I live here because I am not too far from the West End which I visit for the theatre and indeed I need the hospital too - two appointments in one day tomorrow!kim wrote:Same here.

London is the last place on God's earth (being a Northerner!) I wanted to live but Fate brought me here and I am quite content. In Chicago I lived in a forest preserve where all you heard were the sounds of nature....then, I lived in Puerto de La Cruz on the main drag and what I experienced the other night with the motor-bike I experienced 24 hours a-day!
My dream place to live would be on a beach, no people. Just the sound of the sea and the birds....Ahhh heaven on earth...And, I live here because I am not too far from the West End which I visit for the theatre and indeed I need the hospital too - two appointments in one day tomorrow!

My mother wanted to lay out cans of sardines to attract them until a neighbor showed her all the damage they caused her property one night when they broke into her motor home. What a mess!Every parent has a favorite child. Usually the child belongs to the neighbors.
