Re: relocating to the UK
The Bank Account can be the most difficult part of it. When you register with a doctor, take your passport to prove your right to stay here. They may not ask for it but........................After years of dealing with hostile bureaucrats in the Middle East ,the Third World and in Eastern Europe, it was amazingly easy for me when I resettled in Britain after many years away.

Live in Scotland for 3 years before your studies begin and you are a Scottish resident. This has an impact on the level of fees you pay.

Re: relocating to the UK
While the UK does not have a high unemployment rate there ARE people out of work and with the EU there are plenty of skilled/experienced people looking for work so employers are not short of choice.
You should have resources to last a few months while you job search.

Yes of course one needs to work to survive long term, but you have never lived in the UK, there are plenty of people who can admin work, and although you are going to have accommodation to start with, don't underestimate how long it might take you to find work - hence the resources.

Re: relocating to the UK
This idea of communicating by code (V=have, D=the and U=you) reminds me of the Two Ronnies' "Swedish Made Simple" sketch:
In the case of the Two Ronnies it was humorous. On this forum it is just annoying.

As such, it is used in many different ways by many different people(s).
It is precisely that freedom that has led to its success. Personally I relish it.
