Going to the UK
[ Hello Dick, I am going to go to UK in the near future. Tell me Dick where in UK is the best area to start a new live? Is better to choice a town or a countryside? Unfortunately, I do not have some relations in UK. I would like to know what do you advice me, please? Tell me what would you do if you were on my position? I do not go to UK without any idea of what to expect. Thank you very much for your kindly reply and advice. Regards,] Where to start a new life in the UK? Wow. How does one address this question. If I recall you are nineteen or perhaps twenty now. When I was that age I could go out any day, even in the lunch hour, and get a job anywhere doing almost anything I wanted to have a go at. And I did well, a few years younger actually; but the prospects were still there for quite some time after that. But now? Well things have changed and jobs are not so easy to come by, not by a long chalk. Not only that but the place is full of frigging foreigners :- ) What would I do if it were me (today but at your age) in that situation. I would be wanting to go into the country somewhere far away from the maddening crowd and the din and the noise. But, today, you are not very likely to find a job there. You might, but I would not bank on it. If you were going to go to a City then I would recommend London first and Bristol second, or maybe even Bath if you could get work there. Southampton is another reasonable choice and I know that it has a large Polish community there. That might be something worth thinking about because they could help you out a great deal. So, maybe that might be your best bet. It is also quite near the New Forrest National Park which is rather nice. Other than that I don't really know what to say for I have no idea what you really want to do and as to how your personality is for fitting in to this or that. But, give Southampton some thought at least in the meantime and check it out on the internet. Oh, I was just thinking are you any good a football? :- ) They need somebody to teach them how right now :- ) But good luck and best wishes. Dick.
