I'd count agricultural as settled

I fallow field has people on it? Boy you are slow.

If people own the land and live on it then yes, its settled. If I have a
10 acre garden does that make the garden settled or not settled land?
What if its 10 square feet? Where do you draw the line?

All the surplus land. The UK has a land surplus.

Really? Where?

You ever been on the central line in rush hour?

Focus please.

Thats a "no" is it?

"Central Line will take you acroos London [in les than a hour]

No. It won't. Across london is epping to west ruislip and it doesn't have
a hope in hell of doing that in an hour even late at night.

and also the new Crossrail even quicker. Now you know."

Crossrail doesn't exist yet.

Perhaps when you've finished being a know it all student get yourself

I advise you to get off the A road and onmto the B. Nothjing is there -
empty. I advise you to fly over it and look down.

Done all of that. Unlike you I suspect.

northwest to start with.
