goodness feel a bit scared about the move now :-(
Just remember 9,541,000 people live in London so it can't be THAT bad or THAT dangerous or everyone would have moved outt!

If you're on the younger side and sociable I'd move somewhere inside London with good, ideally night, tube access and make the most of everything the city has to offer. When looking in London also remember you're better off looking at the Tube/NationalRail maps on the TFL site than a normal map - somewhere like Mitcham's quite close to Tooting as the crow flies but looks like at least 2 trains, while (at random) Elephant & Castle phyisically a lot further away but a single train line so likely to be a quicker journey.

If you're on the more mature side/less interested in going out then somewhere in the commuter belt might fit better, anywhere with good rail access into Wimbledon.

Is there anyone that lives close to the cr4 area who could potentially have a quick look around this place we have found? Sorry to ask it’s just my husband has no time off here in cardiff to make a 3 hour trip there :-(

Many thanks
