And the survey said... Nottingham

A survey undertaken last week put Nottingham on the map as the place most people want to relocate too. Nottingham knocked last years winner Glasgow off the top spot as it experienced more moves into the city than any other in Britain. This is great news and a boon for the city after all the recent bad press about Nottingham and really shows it has loads to offer. On reading further into the survey I was shocked that London only accounted for 7.5% of total moving activity. Almost twice as many movers left the capital than moved in from other areas, meaning London suffered the highest net loss of all regions.
With the amount of cockney accents I am hearing in this area it would seem evident Londoners are moving up here and who can blame them!

you can keep those faux londoners whose only idea of what a cockney accent is comes from watching mr madonna's shite films.
(guy "mockney" ritchie is a film maker on par with quentin - which is to say both are pretty pants.)

I haven't heard many cockney accents in Mansfield so far...thank goodness. That accent has a twang that irritates me only slightly less that a welsh accent!
