Yes honestly scared. I would like to be back onthe property ladder asap and there is no way I can realistically afford to do that down south and commute into London. I don't want to rent because it's dead money. What Hurls just said seems quite sensible from that point of view then. Otherwise not being funny but the vast majority of people down here can't get on the housing ladder except as 1) a couple 2) mates buying a place together.

And those are the reasons why I can't really consider moving down south Jules. I am not a) in a couple or b) have many friends down south (all of whom are in couples).

I am not a) in a couple or b) have many friends down south (all of whom are in couples). But I refer you again to what Hurls said. Buy in the North, rent it out and use that to support costs of renting in the South. *shrugs*

That idea's not 3 bad Hurls!! Me coming to get you ;D Whilst I understand that you find it daunting there are people working and living in London on far less than you. Monika's niece has just arrived and has a bedsit with a group of friends - she earns £5.50 an hour + tips! I get the feeling you want a clean break for a while, what have you got to lose - you'll have some fun

I suppose I'm scared of being lonely as well. Is it fair to say nearly all your friends are in Yorkshire then? See, I partly came to London cos most people I knew at Uni are here in one bit or another. However doesn't mean I see all of them all the time. I'm sure you're strong enough not to be lonely here, but I know what you mean.

I suppose I'm scared of being lonely as well. I don't think you will be sweetie, you'll make friends through work. You could even meet some of the 606 London contingent. I'm sure your mates will be well up for comming to visit you, take the plunge as they say. Jules might even tickle your leg ;D

Why not just apply for a load of jobs in London, thats the first step. If you get one worry about it then
