Im really sorry to hear that Matt - understandable with what you went through earlier in the year but dont give up your dream - they have sheep over there too who need looking after plus big vine yards that need tending and youve worked so hard for your degree - good luck wherever you end up n one day we could be having a beer on a lovely beach somewhere at a BE meet up x

Too old to migrate to work and too young to retire there.

That could be plan C if A or B dont work out but can you get PR if you retire over there - dont want to get there enjoy a few years and then they say right your times up been good n all that but see ya later - my dad said to me the other day - they wernt too picky a few years ago - well dad they are now .
Well i hope you get there one day.
Take care and good new year to you.
Love Sam x

Hello to everyone and a very happy new year. We had a fantastic first Christmas in Spain and the first 6 months has been a real blast. WE are loving it and things are going great.
I hope things are going just as good for all of you on here.
All the best for 2008
Peter & Janine
