Is it not possible to move, even just closer to the Liverpool/Manchester area? Still not too far from Wales-land then. Prices need not be too high. We moved from Oxfordshire to Leicestershire to be more 'central' for Rose's work (she is now all over the place , she's in Manchester, York, Brighton or London at least once a week). We may move again in future, North/South, who knows. A change can be good for people, it doesn't mean you'll never return to Denbigh.
