In reply to the OP..... Best thing I ever did was leaving London when I did, great to come back & visit, but sooo much nicer to go home after. Worst thing I did was coming back, tho not by choice, more circumstance beyond my control

Tried moving away, me and the wife went to live in the midlands for 4 years. Great away day opportunities for Palace games with so many Prem/Championship teams all within the same stretch of the M1. Very cheap living. We rented a two bedroom flat smack bang in the middle of Notts for £400 all inclusive. Minted, but then as far as schools, further job opportunities in my chosen field (Film/TV) we're non existent. And the local weekend life got very old very quick with not as much variety as here in the big smoke. Nice to be to save a few quid but I always harboured thoughts of returning to London. It's like a dark star London, as it just pulls everything towards it. Just my personal experience with trying to move away.

Going back to 2004 the choice was staying in a two bed flat in London or, as it has turned out, a 5 bedroomed house by the sea in a place with good schools, little crime and clean air. Obviously, we chose the latter and zero regrets but can't deny how great London is and how much I always look forward to visiting. And leaving to get away from the madness too All about the ties and how strong they are. If still powerful my advice would be to move no more than an hour by train away so you can still get the London fix as and when.

You don’t want to go to Scotland mate. Full of dour little people with red faces who spend all day in their council houses smoking and blaming their lack of (well everything) on the English.
