Default If you had the money to live anywhere where would you live?

I'd buy a flat in Central London and a log cabin in British Colombia.

I remember on Record Breakers on children's TV, seeing Roy Castle sitting in a deckchair on a beach in Hawaii. He said he could sit there all year round because the temperature never went below 65 °F. I can't remember what the world record was now, but loved the idea of a place that was always warm, but not too hot.

Also Hawaii has great scenery, fresh fruit, seafood, and some of the mightyfinest coffee beans. I'd grow a luxuriant moustache, wear loud shirts, a Detroit Tigers cap, and maybe drive around in a red Ferrari spyder

Awesome! That's exactly what I'd do. Actually, anywhere in that area of Canada would do me. I love everything about it!

I'd also want to buy a country estate in England. Then walk around it with a shotgun over my shoulder and my dog by my side lol

Sneaky

Default Re: If you had the money to live anywhere where would you live?

i'd have a swanky, um, mud hut, on the banks of titicaca -


a castle (like the one in the disney logo) on the shore of easter island -


a rehearsal facility at the bottom of the marianas trench -


and my chill-out pad on sedna


i'd also like a chain of youth hostels in the asteroid belt, and a chain of burger kings in the oort cloud. oh, and a lookout post near the horsehead nebula, and um a giant fully furnished glass bubble near the heart of andromeda.

Somewhere by the water, by the sea, in a log cabin.
