Greyman 28,441 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Not were but when, England in the 70s and 80s may have been the vigour of youth but everything seemed much better then, would happily travel anywere and stay for different time periods but would probably always return home 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 46,854 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I genuinely never thought I would ever leave England, but the reality’s of modern England in the type of area where I lived just kept punching me on the nose every day. I was sitting on the train back from Paris with me wife in the August after having a very nice few days away and thinking about what I was going back to and said to her “I can’t do this any more, I can’t stand what I have to look at and deal with every day for one more second” Ahe said “fine, where do you want to go?” And we was moved by the February. I initially thought about France but my wife’s from Ireland so we ended up here......but now I know it’s as easy as just making up your mind I could go again, just for the adventure. Id have a look at France this time, a place with a lake......may do it, may not.......see how the mood takes me. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisJones 7,975 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 What Ted said... I've been in the US for 10 years. It isn't England but neither is England anymore. I'll visit now and again but when people ask me what England is like I say that it's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.

Full-time move might not be a great idea if you get homesick when you're on hols. It's an expensive do to immigrate. Maybe a rural a move a little further from where you are? 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
