Doubt anyone could pay me enough to ever live in Solihull BP
Tho may be pleasant enough for folks, depending on their tolerance levels.
Always remember the first evening after we moved out of the UK. The move was complete hassle and the usual problems with air flights and crap - and I was cussing everything around.
That evening we went out for dinner and sat under a thatched roof restaurant surrounded by palm trees and overlooking a beach and with an warm blue Caribbean sea lapping the white sands 15 feet from the table. The meal, drinks and service were excellent (found out later the restaurant rated in the Egon Ronay guide).
Anyways... I thought for a moment and stopped the whining and moaning. Where in the UK would you ever be able to have a meal like that??? Nowhere. And muttered to the guests.. "Well, maybe this place is not so bad after all - it beats Clacton-on-Sea and Solihull!"
And I firmly believe that to this day
