Pretty depressing really, I’d love to be working 9-5 under Euro rules, going home to a Villa to sip Rioja in the sun while Jnr’s in bed.
Or is that not what really happens in the likes of Spain/South of France? (waits for illusions to be shattered).
It really is quite a beautiful dream, isn’t it? (Try looking at it another way, the same s**t with sunshine. How much do you value sunshine?).
Its a good point. My wife’s west indian so we looked to move to the carribean.
The plus points, 9-5, sun & beaches in the evening & weekend.
The minus points, a pittance of a salary, vastly reduced quality of life, and almost impossibloe to save up to return to the UK (unless you had funds to saved in the UK.
An example – average salary over there £7k per annum. House prices – same as here. Petrol – same as here. Imported Cornflakes, £6 per box.
So yes, how important is the sundshine indeed…… :0/
