I might end up moving there at some point- you get a lot more house for your money there than here in Shriv. I take it your username is after Gorse Hill's famous pub? Either the pub or the story about the smugglers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to get a season ticket for me and my 11 yo daughter. She will love Tynecastle so much and whilst she may not come all the time with me I’m going to aim for 9 matches a season which would be awesome. Will also help me reconnect with some old school mates and see some family more often. Think I need to wait until June for general sale but can’t wait to get it sorted! 👍🏻 Nice one mate!!! You’ll love being back among us assholes !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One or two of the locals are featured on the show and some made a fair bit from allowing their houses to be filmed as a backdrop.
