Yes willow is in almeria and is really stunning especially the views i did a thread on it from my holidays. Just specky as the ossies say :)

Re: France - Spain or Accy
 

If it is a choice among the three, I would choose Accy. Rain and all ... But I would always spend fall in Canada. But my homeland is so damn big that it would take more than one lifetime to see it all. Spain I don't like all that much, and if I want the French experience, la belle province is just a few clicks down the freeway. Vive le Quebec! (and the Montreal Canadiens).

Having travelled the world courtesy of the “Grey Funnel Line” and lived ashore for varying periods of time in many countries I can honestly say, “There is no place like home.” Home for me is now Darwen after being brought up in Accrington and living most of my civilian life in Blackburn. My kids, apart from the youngest daughter in Spain, live close enough to be accessible yet far enough away not to be a nuisance.

After living in Bahrain for 18 months it was a joy to see green fields and feel rain on my face.

After living in Capetown for two and a half years with Xmas on the beach in temperatures the other side of 30C I welcomed the snow of England.

Have some Karma Royboy39 to make up what anonymous children took away.

Re: France - Spain or Accy
 

I don't fancy Spain or France and am beginning to hate living here too..:( I am here because I would miss my family terribly. I would love to live in New Zealand but the wages are poor in comparison to house prices and the cost of living is high when you earn NZ$. Alternatively, Australia would be my second choice, but somewhere not as hot as Brissy or the Gold Coast, Maybe Melbourne or Tassie..:D

Re: France - Spain or Accy
 

Lettie....go to Tassie......my sister has just bought a parcel of beach front land to build a house on.......they only migrated 5 years ago...they both work hard......she is a Nurse and her Hubby is a policeman...they own their own house and have another house that they rent out and have just got the plans for this new holiday home in Tassie....thinking that when they retire it will be a good place to spend their days.
Adelaide and South Australia are lovely too....they are looking for migrants and they have relaxed the migration laws to encourage people to go and live there. I would love to do it, but alas they want earners and breeders and I don't now fit either of those categories.

Re: France - Spain or Accy
 

If you are thinking of places other than Accy, France or Spain, there is always Canada .... second largest country in the world with only 30 million people, lakes, forests, mountains, prairies ... all the good stuff. A fantastic standard of living, clean safe cities ... we have abundant natural resources which will fuel our economy for decades (oil, lumber, gold, potash, uranium, nickle, grain, marijuana (British Columbia's largest cash crop)) and a great health care system. Not to mention a large skunk population. It don't get any better than right here; that's why I never travel out of the country any more.

Re: France - Spain or Accy
 

A friend at work's daughter emigrated to Adelaide couple of months back. She was a policewoman in Leicester, he a BT Engineer. Course she couldn't join the Police Force there because she did not have Australian citizernship, but qualified swimming instructress, could teach Spanish, etc.

They were assured plenty of jobs for them to go at, but when they got there this was not the case, lots of the industries, offered before they set out, were making people redundant and only jobs on offer were cleaning, etc.
The reason they chose Adelaide was something to do with a points system you have when going to Australia.

They hated it ... said the houses were no better than the ones based in some of our more shoddy council estates, people with caravans/cars parked on their lawns and sitting out at night on sofas. Nowhere to go socially at night either.

Was very heartbreaking, but that they decided to come back home again after 4 weeks. Moving back to Leicester this week (after a stay in Ossie with my friend) having been offered their jobs back. Ok.. some might say, didn't give it long enough, but you can't help your initial instincts I suppose, can you ?

Me, much as would be extremely pleasant to visit France and Spain for long periods during the year; HYNDBURN is my comfort zone and would not wish a divorce.
