I've been there a few times, doesn't seem too terrible. Looking on Rightmove £300k buys a big house, so is it over run with do as they likeys or a reasonable relocation from Huntingdon ?

I dated a girl, briefly, from Wisbech once.

Honestly, the lounge was like a scene from the Royal Family... Dad had his chair, Mum had her chair, etc.

They must have been loaded, or did you mean the Royle family wink.

I was thinking about viewing a nice looking house in the town. 4 bed detached with a double garage on a small development of similar houses, but I read some articles in the local paper and it seems the locals and the large eastern European population in the town don't get on. That and the place nearly flooding 2 years ago doesn't inspire me to relocate there.

House we liked the look of is on Woodcote Park close to North Brink, according to the local paper the river was inches from going over the flood defences in 2013.

Can't see that happening. No mountains or hills for the rain to run off. smile


Inches from going over the flood barrier 2 years ago apparently.
