I'm curious. What has arriving in Gloucester managed to ruin for you. For me, it's the beach and maybe carnivals.

Yes. Plenty of things.

[bossyboiler]

And Gloucester hasn't soured you on any of them?

[the_archivist]

No. It's hardly the worst place to be dumped.

[bossyboiler]

I can think of worse places. You're right about that.

[the_archivist]

Not having to pay London rents is definitely an up side.

[bossyboiler]

That bad?

[the_archivist]

The housing market is broken. You shouldn't have to pay a thousand pounds or more a month for a single bedroom in a flat-share.

[bossyboiler]

That's ridicules. You shouldn't have to pay that much at all for a decent apartment.

[the_archivist]

Right? And there's bills on top of that, and feeding yourself. And wages haven't risen to match the cost of housing.

[bossyboiler]

It's a shame how some governments and systems are run, putting the needs of the few over those of the many.

[the_archivist]

Certainly. Greed and corruption. Bloody Tories.
