Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Yes, the high streets have changed and it is a huge concern. Direct result of people doing so much shopping online. I am so upset and worried about it, because a town is more than just buildings and...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Very interesting, Shelley. Yes, some parts of the UK are really congested..I can see this would have been disconcerting if you live in the Ontario countryside.

Travelling in retirement—sounds...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Great to see this post from you, Bevs! I've been on British Expats a long while and have seen over the years your wistful comments about returning.
I didn't realise you hadn't visited in ten years,...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Bumping this up once more in hopes it might re-awaken....here's a question for Shelley748:

What did you think about moving back, after the September visit to Dorset that you mention was planned,...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Oh that's great, Bevs. Maybe it will be discovered by more over 40s who are thinking of moving back and want to discuss the issues....

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Hm, seems as if this thread— for many years so helpful and such a support especially for those moving back to the UK a bit later in life—is petering out. No-one has posted here since my last post,...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

A trip back—apart from personal visit, that's always useful to help work out how you think/feel. And post-retirement going southwards and rv-ing in the winters sounds like a good plan!

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Great to hear this, christmasoompa.
As Christmasoompa says, pick your area wisely. I agree, it will vary from area to area...and even within areas. Where I am, some parts of NHS care I've...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Hi Shelley, yes, your concerns about overwhelmed police and over whelmed NHS are legitimate, I totally understand.

I'm back in Gloucestershire, where I lived as a teenager and where many family...

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

That's tricky, BEVS. In adult life real friends get harder and harder to make, as well...it does sound staid, where you are....yet the upheaval of a move is also a deterrent, I am sure.
