I apologise, I have checked and Hull is definitely in Yorkshire but only just.



So it is not the real North East, not like Co Durham and Northumberland. Where if you can live through a winter there, you can live anywhere.

Othello's two daughters will be born in Limassol in October this year - date to be announced - and thereafter will be regularly residing in Larnaca. Soon after, it is anticipated that they will re-locate closer to their named areas viz Bellapais and St Hilarion. Some ears to grow and water to flow in the meantime.

Hi Kitty Kat Jac,



Couldn't agree more. Darlington is a beautiful town with victorian parks. The Yorkshire dales and moors on it's doorstep and the North Pennines an easy drive away. It also has history being the birthplace of the railways. The majestic Durham Cathedral and Castle all within twenty minutes drive. Both my hubby and I were born in Darlo so of course we are bias.

Things became very complicted here when a number of clubs came under the control of the Greek Constituion a couple of years back - with the bulk remaining English - and now, neither the twain shall meet.



I was due in the Chair of King S. last month, but stood down for personal reasons.
