The lease, on this house, is due for renewal\/expires in two months.<\/p>\n
I could just roll it over for another year.<\/p>\n
Or I could move.<\/p>\n
As much as I enjoy living here, the People’s Republic of Witney has one significant drawback.<\/p>\n
The total absence of a train line.<\/p>\n
Some local folk say that a decent MP would have fixed this, especially if he were in a position of supreme power such as, for example, holding the position of Prime Minister. I couldn’t possibly comment.<\/em><\/p>\n So yes, back to moving.<\/p>\n I spent last night on Rightmove, TheTrainLine and Google Maps.<\/p>\n Banbury (which is still in Oxfordshire, but only just) seems to have a good train service. And the town is on the motorway network.<\/p>\n Milton Keynes also ticks the train service box, and has reasonable access to the motorway system.<\/p>\n The wider question is, more practical.<\/p>\n Can I do it? Can I view properties, go through the admin and move from here to there in, effectively, less than six weeks?<\/p>\n Can I?<\/p>\n Especially given the other dynamics in my world?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The lease, on this house, is due for renewal\/expires in two months.
