 Personality/Location test - Crankcase
According to this ten question quick test I'd be happier moving to North Lincolnshire, and be unhappy if I moved to Argyll and Bute, and where I am isn't actually that brilliant for me.

Here you go.

Best place for my personality, 92% Devon. That's OK.

Where I live 81%.

Best place near me, Richmond, Surrey 82%.

BTW. The validity of the survey is discredited because they say that the most agreeable people in the UK are The Jocks?? That's are load of old bow lecks, obviously!!

81%? Crikey, I get 12% for where I live, and the best recommendation is only 24%.

It says I should avoid Argyll & Bute too, but I quite liked the description of it.

It suggests Tamworth. I like the hardware shop in Tamworth, but that's about it. Not going there.

Um, couldn't find anything in Craven, and Skipton property prices seem higher than Cornwool, so I'm staying phut.

83% if I live in West Lyndsey because its rural.
Where is that?

Apparently I have problems with extroversion.
Probably because I'm so shy.

You misread it; that was 79% happiness for everybody else if you lived in the Highlands.

Don't want to know the indices and wouldn't be able to make sense of them. I call the general area the Surrey/Sussex badlands, but only to glamorize it. It's solid South East, rich thank goodness and smug as a result, nothing wrong with the neighbours or locals, several good pubs within ten minutes, decent varied wildlife and so on.

Sort of paradise, but nothing's perfect knowImean?

Interesting that the BBC and the 'editor' who wrote it regard this tosh as science.
I expect the conclusion would be that the best place for someone like me would be in exile abroad.

Lewes for me followed by somewhere in the Fens I think. Recovered from the Oggin I'm sure.

I'm staying put in God's own county just the right side of the Pointy heads :-0)

Happiest in Winchester at 72%
Home in the Vale of Belvoir gives 70%, which is close enough.
Worst wasn't that awful either, I must fit in reasonably well anywhere.
Which is a surprise.

I like Argyll & Bute, a couple of friends live there. The scenery more than makes up for the lack of infrastructure.
