moving ...

Carpe diem !

Posted too soon sorry. I think you must do what YOU want to do. Life isn’t a rehearsal etc etc. Why stay in an area you dislike when you have the chance to live somewhere nice. You can visit your daughter and vice versa on public transport.

Take the offer and move, you deserve to be where you want to be.

From my own experience of not doing what I wanted and regretting it I'm with Lucca. Carpe diem.

Definitely go!
Good Luck x

Go, I think you may regret it if you dont.

Start packing, moggie
You sound as if you really want to go, so you must.

I think you should move too.I’m with Miss Adventure,start packing!

Yes moggie I'm another start packing fan!

If you re read your post it seems to me you are actually saying, the only thing from stopping you is the fact that your daughter is inconvenienced because she doesnt drive!

Just talk to her about the logistics of you both getting together after the move.
Perhaps at a half way point?

Anyway Lucca had it in a nutshell ...carpe diem

Enjoy your new location/life.

List pros and cons of both moving and staying but ultimately you are unhappy where you are so I would go with my feelings. Family situations can change. There's no guarantee that your daughter will always be around. I moved out of my preferred area to another that I didn't know and I'm very happy. I think you are clear headed in that you are saying it is probably temporary anyway on the way to where you really want to be.

You only live once and it's your life. Time to move! Good luck.

I moved 13 years ago, away from my children. I've been very happy here and love our house but in the end it has come down to wanting to be nearer to my children and grandchildren. Also my DH has health problems and I don't really relish the idea of being left here alone in our large house when I'm older. If you are absolutely clear that you'd rather be near your brother (and presumably his family) than your daughter then it is the right thing to do, but think about when you are older too.

Wouldn’t the go want to visit if you are near the sea?

That should re gc

Do what your heart tells you. If your health and happiness will be exit from moving then do so, put yourself first. Good luck..

Be exit should read benefit!

No brainier.
Just go.
Good Luck.

Follow your own heart, and think how the GC will love visiting a Nanny by the sea. Life is too short to be unhappy ...

I think you have already made up your mind to go and the real worry is how to tell your daughter. Your brother is of your generation ...it may not be your last ever move either .....maybe your daughter will move to be nearer you in the next few years...do what is best for you now

Yes, GO!

Ask yourself what it is about the move that will actually make you happy, and what you expect to get out of it that you can't where you are. Make an honest list of the pros and cons. It's easy to think something like a house move will solve our problems but then take all our baggage with us and nothing really changes. You say the move is temporary, will you be able to relax and feel happy if you know you will be moving on yet again? How will you feel while you wait for that move to town? Having said that, a few years ago I moved across the country beause I didn't really like where I had been living for the last 20 years. It was a very good move and life is far better. If it's the start of a positive journey towards a better life and not just trying to leave disappointment and discontent behind, I'd say go!

Do what you want to do. Housing likes people who accept offers and if you turn this one down they may not bother to off you anything. When you are ready to move again they will remember you as a positive tennant and will offer you something that suits you at the time if it is available.

none of us know how long we have to live so live life to the full whilst you have it.

A change is as good as a holiday! Go, and be happy.

Good luck with making you descision
