Can't really think of anything, had a nice life there and having a nice life here Thought of mentioning the cold but then realised I'm cold here as well in the evenings and nights but it's far easier to deal with because the days are good. The answer must be "nothing" Hubby's answer will always be "I don't miss scraping the ice off the windscreen in the early hours of the morning to get to work"

All we miss are friends and family. I don't miss the crap weather, cost of living, traffic, crime, uptight people and Heathrow Airport!!
