Cambridge

Bit quiet around here, isn’t it? Insert usual apologies and things here. I don’t really plan to start updating again regularly, but I know a few people subscribe to my RSS feed so I figured this was an easy way to spread news.

So, yeah, we’re moving to Cambridge, which is quite exciting. I’ve got a month or so left at Transitive before I have to start packing our life into boxes and carting them down the A1 to the second furthest place south I’ve ever lived. I’ve been in Manchester over 10 years – the longest I’ve ever lived anywhere – and it’s not going to be terribly easy to let go, but I’m a bit of a country boy at heart and I quite fancy the idea of having a garden with wildlife other than foxes and pigeons in it. Plus I have a soft spot for East Anglia, flat and dull as it may be, and London’ll only be 50 minutes away on the train should I feel the need to inhale some smog and sit in some crowded public transport.

So this is all quite exciting, anyway. Hooray.

    Why the move?

    And don’t worry – the south didn’t prove to be too much of a shock to me.

    good luck with the move. Oh and Cambridge isn’t proper south, its a bit north of south 🙂

    Cambridge is not North by any stretch of the imagination, neither is man Manchester, lol

    Blimey, that’s going to be a change!

    Hope all goes well with it, and all that. As another has asked, what’s the cause?

    Oh, and don’t forget I’m only an hour down the road myself, so can always organise a meet again if you want. You have my email addy (on this comment, if nowt else)

    All the best with the move etc., anyway.

    Hey, that’s exciting! That’s where I live, might see you around. I like Cambridge. I didn’t at first (too small, too rural after London) but it’s grown on me.
