Hi
Well like almost proffessional i live very near to the airport,which is a lovely area and ideal for commuting to leics,notts and so on....
I personally prefer Derby that Notts, reason being Very easy to get to,and quicker straight down the new A50.
It has a fantastic night life,apparently most Notts people drink in Derby now,good shops,plus it is having a nice new Shopping Mall constructed with 300 new shops and lots of restuarants.
I also like Derby as you don't have the violence there compared to Nottingham,almost everytime i put the news on there is always a shooting or killing in Notts,Derby is very low in crime,so i stick with Derby. Take care
Mike
