Climate Change

Morning all. I've been back in the UK for almost a month now; it's been good and a bit of a whirlwind. I found the drop in temperature from the Dominican Rep very hard to take and for the past week...

Re: Falling Exchange Rates

Oh, that is music to my ears, thank you! I have only lived abroad for 25 years so you'd think I'd understand this stuff by now, wouldn't you? I may sleep better at night now. We are all at the...

Re: Non-Resident Returning - Selling Property Abroad

Really helpful, thank you. I knew about stamp duty but didn't realize you could claim it back when your residency was reestablished, so that's good to know. I would only have one property, so...
