It would work pretty well for me in London. I can pretty easily get in and out for a day but it would be great to go up on a weekday for an exhibition, t'other half to go to Shepherd's shop to get fancy art paper and stuff, bit of culture in the evening or just have a leisurely meal out and then crash (instead of taking a late train home), get up, swan about a bit/walk in the park etc, have breakfast somewhere and then get a non-peak train home. I'd be happy doing that once a weekNoggin wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 6:49 pmOk, the timeshare idea ^^^^ is cool, but seriously? A posh suite in an hotel would do the job and then you'd have no running costs , just pay in whatever city you want to be in!!Cousin Jack wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 3:43 pmA pied á terre by Regent's Park, and another in Montmartre, my idea of heaven. Can I have one in New York too?Count Steer wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 2:56 pm
I liked living in Brussels and Paris too - I guess I'm a 'capitalist' . In an ideal world I'd have a place where I am and a pied á terre in somewhere eg by Regent's Park (another in Paris would be cool too). That'll do nicely.
You could AirBnB it on days no-one was using it to help with running costs I suppose. The share thing is potentially fraught though - unless you really trusted the others.
