When I was hunting around trying to find a new home a couple of years ago, looking at everything, among the everything I looked at was a number of apartments in the city. City life appealed. I could walk to work, walk to the theatres, walk to the Comedy Club, the library, the art gallery, cool cafes and shopping precincts just a couple of blocks away, all a single woman of a certain age could possibly want. As it was, my circumstances changed and my family and I ended up buying a home together, and I have to say that I am jolly glad my dream of a bougie inner city pad did not come to fruition. Because that's all it would have been, a dream.
