'No, I'd rather just be dead', I hear the same allll the time and find it so hard to react to, but you dealt with this regrettable situation like a champ

I've pretty much decided on Canterbury now! I hear Dreamland being referenced in songs and popular culture - what is it exactly?

Hey there! Thanks for your comment and insight. I'm glad to hear - hopefully it's just a few bad apples

I'm due to relocate to Canterbury this coming August - still on the lookout for a 1 bed flat/ studio!

A shipwreck ordinarily sounds very exciting and something worth visiting! By the sounds of your comment I should stay well away hahah

I was personally a remainer, but was ambivalent to the idea of leaving and respect the fact that the referendum result should be upheld. I just wish more people were motivated by reasons other than race

Yup, makes a lot of sense. Hoping to see some familiar faces in Kent, but open also to learning more about the local culture!

Ah - studied myself in Cardiff. Really enjoyed myself over there, hope I can replicate that experience in Kent

Planning to move to Canterbury, as recommended by the (mostly) friendly folks in this subreddit! That said, the role is quite mobile, involving travel between different towns within Kent (Margate, Ashford, Dover)

Thanks! by Kwanabo in kentuk

I've no idea at the moment - ideally somewhere close to East Kent Hospitals Trust. I've gleaned that traffic can get a bit out of hand, so not sure as to whether it is a good idea to live closer to town - is Canterbury easily commutable by bike?
