I left in 2008, in the 80s I had to move to London for work, I returned to Wirral four years later after securing myself a job. When that fell apart twenty two years later I moved again, I live in a calm, friendly village in Lincolnshire now. I return home when I can to see family. The slower pace here has literally saved my life. I have fond memories of Wirral, miss family there.......but. If you can get out, run, run for your life. Good luck.
I truly adore the Wirral doolze, but I will admit to a slight pang of envy for where/how you're living now  Had to giggle at that one Zubes, I'm back over here from Lincolnshire (Sleaford). Lincolnshire's ok if you are busy, if you are not working it can be death by a thousand cuts. Public transport practically none existant. The locals are good though, even if most of them are outsiders too.

I've been to Lincoln and stayed in Sleaford a few times, I didn't get to see much because my visits were work related. But I thought Lincoln city centre and in particular the cathedral were lovel The surrounding rural areas must be quite isolating though.

Even Sludge was only a one street town, although the locals get upset when you say. Once the main street is blocked you're goosed. I did enjoy it there though until I retired and then it was a no brainer to move on. I still go over there now and again, my kids stayed there for a kick off. Still made welcome and still like the local Marquis of Granby in Northgate, Wetherspoons isn't bad either. Basically that is about it. My brother always said, and he was only semi joking I think, that Lincolnshire must be shoit because nobody lives there.

I am far more qualified than a friend of mine and probably have more experienced than her, think she lives in loughborogh now (excuse the spelling) and she is getting loads of job offers, for jobs that just arn't going in merseyside or want far more experience/ different specific quallifications. I considered moving when I first left uni but right now my partner has started his own business so cant move due to contacts and building a reputation and I am not willing to leave him or attempt a long distance relationship. I think if it wasn't for that I deffinatly would leave for a few uears just to gain experience else where to get a job here.
