Not right now, no. My current hobby is seeing how much skin I can pull off my eczema-ridden belly :p

Get yer own eczema! I recommend rubbish shower gel & a chaffing belt
I suggest getting a real bad sunburn and waiting until your skin peels. Measure the longest skin peel you get, and we can have a contest.

Sunburn? In this country? In the middle of May? I should cocoa!

my great-uncle died of eczema as a young child. poor thing. granted, it was back in 1910 or so.
my, we've come a long way medically in the last century. now we only have things like ebola and AIDS to kill us.

My wife, daughter & I are hoping to move to New Jersey in 1 or 2 years time to live closer to the missus' family, which'll be nice, tho' I've heard NJ's winters are bloody awful, too.
Having said that, if my in-laws move to Georgia like they're planning to, then we'll be off there instead, which should be an overall improvement, weather-wise

I haven't been to NJ, but I've heard it's an awful place. Unless you have the money to buy a mansion away from the metroplitan junk, then you will either be in a boring track home suburb or a shoddy apartment within a stone's throw of the ghettos of NYC or Philadelphia. Garden State? My arse! It's more polluted than the damn LA basin and there are no mountains there to trap the smog. Stay on the other side of the pond.
Georgia I heard is nice as long you are in or near Atlanta. Or else you'll be in hick country. 
I suggest moving to somewhere on the West Coast other than Oregon (unless you want a lot of pot). Also some parts of Texas can be nice, and Florida.

My time's running out in Britain...
Tristan, I thought parts of NJ were very nice, such as where my in-laws live, and parts were rather awful, such as Newark. Its unfair to tar all of 'The Garden State' with the ugly brush, it's like anywhere else, there's good & bad

Philly isn't that horrid. I lived there for 18 years without ever leaving and I turned out alright. Now, Camden and Newark are cities you should avoid in NJ.

I know Portland is supposed to have the most homeless people per capita.
Well, that would explain all the homeless people I see. Although I'd say a fair amount of them are gutterpunks looking for a handout on account of it's against their politics, or whatever, to work for a livin'. So they let other people do the workin', whilst they collect handouts from the cogs in the machine who actually go to work. As for the rest, who the feck would want to be homeless in a town where it rains all the time? Must be evidence of mental illness, or substance abuse, because if it was just poverty, San Diego's a lot better climate to be homeless in.
Really, I think New Jersey is such a bad idea. Hot and muggy in the summer, cold and frozen in the winter. And you've got to go to New York to find a real city. 'Course, I hear the mob likes New Jersey...probably on account of the swamps.
And Georgia just can't be right. True, Atlanta may be OK culturally, but the humid heat will do you in.
In short, both places seem ideal for NOOL's self-described "nastiest piece of work." For the rest of us, it has to be the California coast. 
No complaints here.

Yes folks, that's a picture of John Denver Beach. A great place to go for a Run.
