"Do you live in a region?"

Hey, I don't. I live in a proper village, me. Calverley really is a proper old Yorkshire village, full of stone terraced 'back-to-back' houses, and it still has a real village atmosphere - it's lovely. It's expanded a bit from when it was mentioned in the Doomsday book, apparently but the old "stone" area where I am currently renting really does seem to have a life of it's own. The more I find out about the place and the more neighbours I meet - the better it gets. If I could muster up a couple of hundred grand I'd buy a little house in Calverley tomorrow. Actually, make that £300k - quaint village life is expensive ...
