Woman: Hm. Did it take long finding an alternative site?
嗯，另觅选址花了很长时间吗？
Man: Over a year - which looking back seems excessively long, as we only seriously considered three locations:

Oxford, Ipswich - and Plymouth, which was the one we eventually chose.

All three places had a good labour supply and running costs were comparable;

although I guess Plymouth is slightly cheaper - while being the furthest by road and rail from London.
