tolajay:Try Midlands especially West Midlands or Northern England |

tolajay:First of all I would avoid London. Staying 2yrs in London and paying nearly half of my salary for rent and another fraction for bills, with no assistance, largely kept me out of this group for months. I lived from shift to shift and nearly got my back broken, only to get home to be reminded that food stuffs is running out, and cable was giving a resuscription warning. I couldn't cope for long. Despite sticking to Amazon prime, and using only charity shop, the permutations did not balance. I got a job up North without discussing this prior and informed my family that they could stay back if they wanted. Obviously they ran along. I still pay these things but its a fraction of what I earn, so I don't mind at all. All my expenses is not up to the rent I paid in London despite increased wages The Midlands would be a place to look at, places like Stoke on Trent, Sherwood forest, Black country, Lincoln etc are all cheap but run down areas compared to the big 4, there is also a flux of Nigerians there, with Nigerian pastors opening ministries too. Pay 10% of your income to these dudes is at your discretion, I guess most are hustlers on suits. On the borders of Manchester but still in the Midland is chesterfield a very nice place too. If you move toward Manchester avoid the city centre. Areas like Boston, Preston, the Pennines etc, is like living in Mowe but claiming Lagos. These would probably be cheaper than living in Manchester. The north of England have some very affordable places too. Ranging from places like Scunthorpe a near shot hole, to Bradford that is filled with Muslims and blacks, but are both affordable places to the very deprived Hull where Doctors are paid to train. Leeds, wakefield, Sheffield are all big cities from the Yorkshire point of view but are quite affordable. I would avoid York itself if it you want to save money. While it's beautiful, and heavenly to live in, its cost of living is close to London in some ways. There are other largely rural areas in Yorkshire, people own 2-3 horses here, and a lot of farm lands, things are pretty cheap and organic. You can live in Newcastle, Sunderland, middlesborough and it's surrounding areas with a fraction of your income. Those areas though cheap are quite cold and you cold end up being impregnated by your husband every year in a bid to cure cold, and end up with more child care bills. I could write about Essex, but I found Chelmsford expensive but beautiful to stay in. Lastly let the one true guide lead you to were you will find comfort and peace But I would avoid London, Cambridge, oxford or the other big 4 as a rule of thumb |

[b][/b]”The very deprived hull”. By this do you mean Hull so deprived that nothing is happening there? Nah wao are you sure I will still go to this Hull university sgtponzihater1: |
| Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by sgtponzihater1(m): 8:20pm On Apr 26, 2021 |
Dukezaga:Not in that sense boss. It's a good place. Deprived in term of their own yardstick. But for us it's affordable and a sensible place to start. |
| Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Mamatukwas: 9:18pm On Apr 26, 2021 |
lynniebabes:Pickup from most post codes is £18 for a 0-30kg cardboard box. Delivery to Manchester depends on plenty things. From where? Weight of item etc. Kindly send a pm for more deets. Thank you. |

Please are visitors to the UK eligible to take the vaccine? If so how do they go about it? |
| Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by LagosismyHome(f): 12:38pm On Apr 27, 2021 |
dustydee:This what a friend told me and how she went about it for her MIL. Visitors are not charged and allowed to take either the test and vaccine for free. However for vaccine the NHS number was required.... so what she did was call her gp and explained that her MIL needs the vaccine and is a visitor. The MIL was register in that gp with no check on I'd or address. The NHS number came shortly after and they were able to book the vaccine However the write up below makes it seems you don't even need NHS number so maybe she could have just gone to the vaccination website and book the vaccine without gp registration. Because it says vaccination against coronavirus No immigration checks are needed. https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/visiting-or-moving-to-england/visitors-from-outside-the-european-economic-area-eea/ |

LagosismyHome:Thanks. We stopped when they asked for the NHS number. I will ring the GP. Thank you. |
