scottishlass 57 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 A few years ago my husband and i thought about moving to new zealand he was in a job he hated,but he managed to find another 1 that he enjoys so that idea was put to bed. But now with bans for this and that ,foot and mouth and the state of farming it has got me thinking again maybe it is time to leave. we have some family in canada and also a few friends in new zealand. The only thing that is really keeping us here is family as we are both close to them Has anyone else thought like this or actually have moved? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

redmoor 0 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 We thought of going to America 18y ago when we got married, started the process etc, but then kind of got cold feet..pressure from family not to leave and i guess fear of the unknown..we bitterly regret it now..i wish we had gone.

jasper65 6 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 If I was going to another country it would probably be Canada!! its mighty bigger than this shit hole with a whole lot less population. just think living there you could roam for miles without seeing a soul, Wonderfull!! the only thing that would bother me is the winters which aparantly get down to -25 at times .....

squirreltail 15 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Yep, we ve thought about it time and time again, because of the ban and everything associated. It was going to be France until we learned its against the French law to hunt anything with a Longdog.Hounds in packs only and guns, something to do I think with the revolution. Then it was going to be Ireland as you can hunt hare there with permission, Ireland 15 years ago was a very different place to what it is now, everything is so expensive now, and like here its a rat race. So although they are both beautiful countries neither place is for us or our dogs, so we just keep our heads down .It makes no sense here that thousands of hare are shot every year but one dog one hare is not allowed.But not a lot of things make sense in Britain of late. If you do leave I really hope you make good somewhere else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

speedlamper 0 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 have you thought about doing a house swap for 12months, there's a few websites where you can do an exchange with a fmily from another country, if you still like it after 12months move there, if not you've lost nothing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stabs 3 Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Moved to Australia earlier this year. Jacked everything in, took the dog with me and it's been ok so far It's like England in the 1950's... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
