The post you are reporting:
Jean and I went up to stay near Enfield last week-end and visited our old haunts of St. Albans and Barnet. Whilst there, we looked in Estate Agents windows and compared to them, all our properties are affordable.
When we lived up there, a two-up/two down in a not particularly great area, was cheap - very cheap, now they are just under £400,000 - what can your buy in and around Dover for that money ?
If we could attract those who own, say, a 3 bed-semi, almost anywhere in the Home Counties or Greater London to come here, they could buy somewhere very nice for cash, somewhere in France, Spain, Cyprus etc. for cash and commute on the high-speed train.
They'd be living here and (mostly) spending here too.
