Who are the 8 that are imminently taking the plunge? I know theres me, intiuitivenipple, kerri and a couple more whom i cant remember their names.
Maybe we should have a thread dedicated to those that are about to go to report on how they're diong as soon as they get there.

10 days to go for me, the stomachs a churning a bit hehehe.

Is it me or has rental prices in the costa del sol shot up again in the last couple of weeks ? :(

How about we all run a public blog here on BritishExPats but link all discussion to one topic in this forum?

Like Andrew I'm going to be doing a lot of videoing. Since 2000 I've been taking a palm-held camcorder everywhere I go and filming what me and my friends get up to. This move is going to provide some great backdrops and scenery for the new chapter. I shall be putting my videos in my blog.

I don't think I'll have much problem with agents and so on when they know they've been captured on camera :tounge_smile:

Ten days to go....does not seem possible, time gone so quickly for you.

Rental prices here go up once Easter is over unfortunately, also long term rental places get fewer as the owners would rather rent short term at higher rates for holiday makers.

Just looked at todays Sur in English, lots of jobs here and in Gib with www.RecruitSpain.com
Do not know what this company is like but have a look, may be able to help you regarding job....Good luck

Don't bank on agents being honest, just because you have a camera!!

I caught some incredible whoppers onnfilm when we were looking.

They probably get so used to cameras, they forget they're there, and with many lying isnt just second nature, it's actually all they know how to do!!

But at least if one does get lied to, and it's on film, it could be very useful evidence for any later disputes& court cases , etc...

Is this something like "Naughty's Stay or Go Sweepstake", because I think we should remember that was started as a little fun but it ended up hurting Miss Naught's feelings.:(

Don't think I am a party pooper:frown: (is that spelt right) it's just some of us get a little carried away:sneaky: sometimes with what we say.
