 DOn't worry, you will find all you need in the local area. WE're not outcasts down here, there are lots of villages.
Besides, your in Deal, your not that far from the other main cost towns. Sandwhich, Ramsgate north, and Dover South....

S'ok. There are plenty of hillbillies down this way too
If you enter the costal towns, its like mass chav/anti social brigade. Think its just a coastal thing. They have nothing to do down there so all act "da bowi's, dn't mess wiv us innit bo" so its quite comical. But get past those, and its just a normal small town/large village. It'll have everything you need, including beers Or else jump on a ferry to france and stock up on cheap booze

PLEEEEAAAAASSSSEEEEE
Compared to north, please, don't make me laugh, my mothers family is northern, there are far more up your way
South is the richest part of the country. All london yuppies remember. And its the older folk who have moved to the coast (just like my nan n grandad )

I'd rather be northern than southern anyday.
Much friendlier up here, not stuck up.

People change the subject when there on a looser 
And thats thats another subject.
But yes, your right in that sense. When the family came down, they couldn't believe how quiet it was, no-one sitting in the front gardens etc. WE prefer privicy and would rather sit in the rear garden where no-one can be nosey.
But in return, rather than go up north, i'd rather be abroad
OI Carl!!!! I paid £180k, and have the bollox of a house, double garage, 3 bed, 2 ponds and a stream. Cheeky mofo!! Gonna bitch slap you next weekend!! But yes, house prices suck like a vietnamise ladyboy!

300 miles mate. few factors that made us choose it; easter week so everywhere is booked, the rules are pretty relaxed, they have showers and stuff, the stock of fish is quite good, we have the lake entirely to ourselves.
