Hi, I have been offered a job back in the UK which I have accepted. Cant say I am over the moon about returning but its a good 'head' decision for the time being.

I was wondering if anyone who has left Sweden permanently or for longer than what could be construed as an extended business trip has any advice on what t's i need to cross and i's i need to dot. Getting back into the English system wont be very difficult as I still have bank account, house, paying NI contribs, self assessment etc. but I suspect it wont be quite so easy to leave Sweden.

You could always write and ask Julian Assange, edp, but unless you have legal obligations I imagine you just - well, leave!

Ed follow your heart not your head; easy to say I know. But likke till or whatever we should say in these parts.

It's "Lykke til" in Norwegian, Mike. Is it the same in Swedish, or are you a Norskie too?

I think its lycka till here in Sweden. I find the pronunciation and the spelling conflict. Just like English, but I am used to English!
Not a Norskie but I did try to get a position there, no lycka! I have lived in Norway,a long time ago for about 4 mnths. We are in Sweden and shall stay here. The longer I am here the more I like it but I want the real Sweden and am looking to the north. A Scot who prefers to avoid wet winters. Give me the snow any day.
