Re: Life is so short.
after a really horrible week, my OH and I have come to realise that life really cant be taken for granted and we have decided to return to Spain. Now some of you already knew that and others had already guessed it but I felt it was worth mentioning just to clarify why I am on this forum.
We had been toying with the idea and trying to weigh up the pro's and cons but given recent events it seems stupid to delay anything really.
We haven't decided on where yet and a few trips are planned this year to have a look around certain areas, but initially we are going for a year just to see whats going on.
We don't have a house to sell, and aside from our dog and a few thousand pounds worth of tools not much else to bring except ourselves.
I have put this in Siesta time because it doesn't really pertain to Spain as such, just our decision and subsequent discussion about the move.
We are planning to make the move next March, I cant leave any earlier because of my course and exams, but I will be finishing off the final part out there.
Thanks.
Matt

Re: Life is so short.
OK, I just cant tell you how much agro it has caused that we are planning to come out to Spain.
The MiL was told last night, now bearing in mind that my OH is 22 ish, and has lived away from home for some years now, and that there were no real problems at the "family" meal last nigh, the shit has hit the fan tonight.
It would appear that her mum would rather have a pop at me in a crowded bar, while I am sat with 11 Argentines than talk to me quietly over a glass of wine in the privacy of her own home.
Well its fair to say that getting my OH out of the country is going to be fun!!

Re: Life is so short.
Its control Pete. Her family have always controlled her and still try to now, but along comes nasty Matt and tries to offer her a wider life, and an experience, but he is a bad bad man for doing so.
