Derby have offered me a job but I also had an interview the same day for a job in Manchester and I won't hear about that until Monday or Tuesday. The job in Derby sounds good but a job in Manchester would be my first preference I'm just wondering how long I can keep Derby waiting.

Derby sounds lovely SE... we were visiting running friends on Friday who live over that way and then continued on up to York on Saturday.

I guess it depends on what part of Manchester you go to, I'm sure there must be some nice areas there too, but you only hear about the bad stuff on the news don't you.

I'm sure there are people on here from Derby and Manchester who would be able to give you some insight

Great news with the job offer, hope the Manchester one comes off for you as it is your first choice.

Can't comment on Derby never been...

I've just been offered my dream job in Manchester. I'm getting a slight pay increase and been offered some help with relocation expenses. Just need to find a new running club.
