If you're in the business of hiring/firing it's prob worth bearing in mind that most of the UK (bar London) is financially bolloxed so if you're in London you may well be doing some hiring but everywhere else it's likely that you'd be drafted in to do the firing

The place you want to move to has to be Cumbria (west Cumbria), the beautiful lake district on your doorstep, it is also a rugby league hot spot, albeit no super league club but we've managed with out a super league club for 15 years now but the game still thrives, ive also heard that sellafield are employing. What more could you ask for, nuclear waste, natural beauty (as in the lakes) , and rugby league....
