Re: Traveling to the UK with cremains

I take individual therapy and have the support of a lot of friends. But the loneliness is palpable, to be honest.

Thanks for the well wishes though.

Thanks for asking. It all comes and goes, you know? The mood.

We were fortunate to be able to arrange for a burial of the ashes on short notice. So now part of him rests in a grave he shares...

Re: Traveling to the UK with cremains

My son and I returned from Northern Ireland on July 14th.

I thought I should let everyone know that I had no problems whatsoever carrying my husband's ashes from the US to the UK. If for...

Re: Traveling to the UK with cremains

Thank you, mcleodfamily. That's reassuring.

I won't be flying with an urn. I had the ashes "split" when I made the arrangements. One half are inside a clock in our living room. The half I will...

Traveling to the UK with cremains

Does anyone have experience with this?

I have checked the requisite government websites and it doesn't appear to be terribly difficult. Knowing the UK bureaucracy, I had thought I might need a...

Re: A CAUTIONARY TALE FOR THOSE WHO ARE PROUD TO BE BRITISH

Thank you, everyone. I've been wanting to tell the news on BE but writing an entire thread about it didn't seem right. This way, those who are regular and read often will see. And that seems the...

Re: A CAUTIONARY TALE FOR THOSE WHO ARE PROUD TO BE BRITISH

How fitting for that 'old' writing of mine to have been resurrected. As such, it seems as good a place as any to write down our news.

My husband and I won't be returning to the UK to live. My...

Re: EEA & U.S. citizen move from USA to UK

If you are drawing SSI in the US, those payments will stop if you move outside the US.

If you are drawing SSDI, those payments are yours and will continue if you move abroad. You do not 'move' to...

Oh that's always possible. I kind of think the government is a little busy with other things right now, though. :lol:

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

Rodney, the days of colonialism are long gone. What are you going to advocate for next? That the Royal Navy rebuild the Mary Rose?

Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up

*sigh*

It saddens me to see that you don't get how this kind of talk creates divide and disenfranchises both Scotland and Northern Ireland. Not just now, but for decades.

Re: Limit to foreign cash being brought in to UK?
