Re: Well, you don't need to leave for another month or so... Sports_Gambler Send a noteboard - 22/10/2012 07:56:47 PM
Warm and sunny here. Life seems good here. I'm tempted to stay.

Can someone give me a run-down of the advantages and disadvantages of Edinburgh versus Paris?


By Dec, I imagine even Paris will be cold and wet (even if Edinburgh will be more so).


Hmm. I might spend a month here in Paris then.

I'm thinking of making a permanent move from NZ to Europe, so I'm checking out some European cities to see where I will finally settle. Edinburgh is still on the short-list.

I really like Paris. By the end of November, it will be decision time, and it could well be the case that the French will be starting to annoy me by that time ;)
