It is not in the middle of nowhere and it has loads of facilities and it gets less snow than Glenrothes, I can tell you!

Lol , how can you say its not in the middle of no where ! Lol look at a map , Fort William to the south 60 miles or so , to the East Aberdeen 100 miles ! and my god if you ever do venture up the A9 to Caithness god help ya ! My kids lived just south of John O Groats in a village called Lybster 3 years ago DESOLATE !
Please folks dont think i dislike SCOTLAND I DONT ! ask my wife i absoluteley love the scenerey here from the lovely rivers around Pitlochery as you travel on the train , to the Queens View at Loch Tummell . I spent many years as a child in Fort william in Glen Nevis in the 70s with my Mum and Dad and so wanted to come back . It is a beautifull country , i cannot take that away from it BUT the fact remains places like Kirkcrappy n Glendrosses are terrible places to live .....

Maybe you should consider a move to Inverness then. It really is a lovely place to live. I have to agree with you regarding Kirkcaldy as it is not my favourite place either. If I want to go shopping, I go up to Dundee (only for the shops mind, I wouldn't want to live there either) or Perth (now I could live there, it is lovely).

ARGHH NO WAY ! im off over the border sharpish !

Kirkcaldy possibly but I don't think Glenrothes is a bad place to live and I have been here 7 years now. Surely, it is what you make of it. I have 2 kids 14 and 11 and they are both into sport and sports clubs and there is plenty for them to do here. As I said, I have a dog who has a choice of lovely walks and an athletic husband who loves golf. Need I say more!

Have I changed your mind yet?

Okay, okay LOL. I have done my bit for the day defending Glenrothes and Fife in general. I am heading out in the lovely Scottish air for a walk in the beautiful green countryside.

You obviously didn't see much of it to create that first impression. Most of the most expensive housing is in the North of the town.

You base that decision on one visit to a small part of a town? I've been to much worse places in Yorkshire and Lancashire. To each his own.
