Travelling to and living in the UK

Hi fellow TA's, in late September im coming over to England for 7/8 months.

I was just wondering if some of you knew any useful websites that listed jobs and also I need to find out the cost of renting/living.

I've done the usual googling but thought you locals might know the better places to look.

the sticky thread at the top of the forum for non UKTA & IRTA was also very helpful.

Thanks,

i realise that, i was hoping for more general website so i can compare areas. www.propertyfinder.co.uk has been pretty good.

if u want to live in London, i'm the person to talk to. You'll need a: a lot of money
b: dedication to work your bollocks off

if u want to live in the north u don't need either of those

the best website for searching for jobs is www.worktrain.co.uk it has all the jobs that the jobcentre have on sytem all over the country.

basically its more expensive to live in the south, but u generally get higher wages.. the northern people are generally more friendly (with the exceptions obviously) but dont live in manchester

if for example u were looking for a 2 bedroom semi-detatched house in chesterfield, ur looking at around �350-�400 per month

OMFG is all i have to say! a three bedroom Terrace house here (well the one next to me the students are renting) is �1300 per month!!!

and for the same in Birmingham you be looking at 700-800 ponds a month

Thats where I'm gonna be for the next three years.

gutted..

depends whereabouts u live, but my brothers ex lived somewhere in the city centre when she was at uni, in the first 3 months she was held at knifepoint for all her � 3 times.

pretty wank really..

oh yea, the �350-400 is the chearer end of the scale.. but fuck, �1300 is wank

thanks for all the replies, espicially the ppl that listed worktrain and loot websites

Hahaha, Northeners?? Friendly?? Jesus, don't go to Middlesbrough, it'll ruin your life. No offense to the quality peeps on here who live up North

looks like i'll be heading to around the Surrey area.

also when looking at rental properties what does it mean when it says 'no benefits'?

erm not sure bout that but it doesn't sound positive, Surry is generally a really nice area, cept they all drive like assholes. quite expensive, but the south east is.

hell yes!!!!!

anyway, it depends where u r in Surrey, as its a fucking massive county. If you're in the Kingston Area, that means u r very very close to me, so about an hour from the London UKTA Massive
otherwise u could be in the Guildford/Farnham area, which is a bit further out (about 15 miles from me)

let us know and we'll sort ya out

Surrey looks really nice from what I've seen, it's the richest county in the country I think.

Not only the housing but also the job situation varies a lot depending on where you go. I wouldn't advise coming to the north-east if you want a job. Rent here is much much cheaper, this is probably the cheapest place for rent but there's a reason for that.
