Re: Another Driving Licence Question

Re: the end of the euro in Spain

Playing Devil's Advocate here....if Britain did opt out of the EU......where would that leave all of us?

We wouldn't be EU citizens.....so what would our status be here?

Re: The perfect Mother

You're right there....seems to be more deletions than actual posts.

You know how it goes...."Yes, he...

Re: house exchange england to spain

Very little seems to be moving either end.....basically because a lot of the Spain market depends on houses selling in the UK. And it's not happening.

There's a lot more demand from Northern...

Re: house exchange england to spain

There's definitely Brits who want to go back or have gone back, who have properties they want to dispose of here.
Of course a lot depends on the locations and values of both, and getting a perfect...

It was the precursor to Blair worming his way in and totally destroying Britain to further his career.
