Someone to fall back on

The local curry house is probably the closest I'd get to my ancestral history XD So I'll take the Mediterraneans instead. Though I wouldn't refuse a longship if it was offered! I really need to go back to York at some point.

Near. Although Brighton is another of my possible options, and that's definitely seaside. Sea is good! :D Luckily, hospital work pretty much guarantees being near a good-sized town, but there are some things that are only really available in London.
