Well it depends, if we are going to compare Spain with Orkney then Spain is a winner...even Torrevieja

Re: spain or uk
There's nothing lucky about wanting to work hard and provide for your family. It's just a better situation that I am in over here than over there. My other friends prefer England and do well there, much better than I do here. They aren't lucky either, they all have to work for a living. They just have good education or trades and a willingness to work. (Not that my trade or education isn't fantastic)

Re: spain or uk
I'm no exception. I'm not lucky either. I just work my arse off and enjoy what I get over here as opposed to what I would get in the U.K. thanks to that one eyed scottish trouser snake Brown and his retarded government.

Re: spain or uk
Hi to every one , as im still looking at moving to spain for a change in life style even though im being told by my friends that i would be mad to up sticks and to move spain at the moment , i know this topic has probably come up before but im intrigued to know from any one on the forum , With the currant economic climate with both countrys in recssion and it not being easy to make ends meet in both countrys where do you / or would you prefer to live and for what reasons ?
Sh*t or get off the pot. Dream or Do.
I would say visit & work (try) for 6months, if that works out make the conscious decision to sell up and move - PERIOD.
Don't move and then find out.
Whether it's P.C or not to state I am going to : A lot of failed moves to Spain is in some way or another having a negative effect to a) The Economy b) Your Economy.
Please don't add to it
DSB.
*EDIT*
"Pjj" - I've been looking through your past posts, seems you were selling your house back in 2007 ? Your user name has changed a load over the years and the Posts all seem to be along the thread of moving to Spain / this / that / cars etc etc. Did you ever move, what's the dealio here ? Or are you just a compulsive liar and like to integrate into the Forum with Ideas ? I just see all you old Threads under so many different names but the same email address ? Weird to me at least.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

As I said - Sh*t or get off the pot. Three years of posting a dream
My 'add' to the Thread was relative, don't bother coming to Spain if you can't afford to.
Peace Out.
