regrets??
 
Right a bit of time on my hands before the next viewing!!
Is there anything you regret leaving behind when you moved out to Spain?
I'm not talking people, but inanimate objects that since arriving in Spain you've thought 'Damn wish I hadn't chucked/ sold that'
Just wondering as H.G keeps telling me to chuck stuff out, and I keep telling him I need to take it!!:D

I didn't bring the chip fryer (probably a good thing) and tumble drier, I have been told I may need the tumble drier :confused:

We also got rid of three chests of drawers, mainly because there wasn't room in the van to bring them. How we wish we had found room as furniture is so much more expensive here. Also we were thinking of buying a new mattress for our bed but decided to wait until we got here - again, more expensive! :ohmy:

We are only in rented accommodation but wish it had a Hoover. Lot easier to whip that round than sweep and mop:)

I don't really use one here, although I have got one, mainly for doing deep fried camembert!

On a serious note (that won't last long!) i brought loads of c**p with me, sorted it when i got here and anything i didn't want i did a couple of car boot sales, it was a good laugh and you got to meet a lot of new people, mind you some of the sights you see will have you rolling up !!!:thumbup:
