A small island off the south coast of England. Referred to by the Beatles as a place to holiday when you're 64, the Island is notorious for its surplus of OAP's as this garden Isle can be a relaxing place to live with a very slow pace of life. However, life for anyone below the age of 65 can be very boring unless you are extremely rich or stupid. There are very little job prospects, the education system is terrible and the social exclusion rates are like those of a major mainland city. There is very little for kids to do, fashion takes 5 months plus to translate to the Island's people. The cost of living is quite high- for example, McDonalds raise the price of all the goods 10p more than mainland prices to account for shipping. With all the negative stuff out the way, the air is cleaner, life is calmer; you feel more secure here than on the mainland. Raising your kids here in theory is great as you can let them out on the streets and you know that if they step one tootsie out of line, the neighbours will tell you all about it. Everyone knows everyone, probably related to someone, somehow. It's an excellent place to re-evaluate your life simply because you realise that you have so much going for life elsewhere. Plus, we have a couple of brilliant breathtaking festivals every year and Hendrix Played Here!!!!
