I was home in Britain again within 2 years. We both got homesick for dear old Blighty. Not what I had expected at all.
Not surprised Jerry, Spain is ok to visit, but to live there I am not sure. My mum lived there for 10 years but only enjoyed 6 months of the year. The rest was either too hot or too cold in the winter.
