Caloundra! QLD!!! Well thats where I am going anyway ..

I think Europe is all the same pretty much, how about Quebec?

Kyrenia in Northern Cyprus is stunning also.

Maybe they are.. Around this way it's a reference that people will get..

I had to think about the question quite hard. And I can't remember what I said last time.

I would stay in Australia, get a unit in the inner East, and maybe a bigger property here.

And then spend time in London, California, parts of France and Luxembourg, especially summer. Can I have all those? California would just be for kicks, I could not spend a lot of time there.

Disagree- it's nothing more than Economics. The reality for many is that Australia ticked all the boxes in regards to work, house, and a bit of the old lifestyle. Inject a few million pounds and all of a sudden doors open back in the old country for some.

This thread has gone well eh? I like living just where I am, the Coast up here is fabulous! Failing that I'd live in the South of France but only if I didn't have to work!

Yes, I looked at France first but put it in the "too hard" basket!
