Apart from everyone telling us bath is lovely and the countryside is lovely (Bath being where we are moving to). Every time we tell someone we are moving to the UK they say they hated it and got out ASAP! C'mon guys, if you are living in the UK tell us something that you LOVE!

Based on our experiences so far with the visa process not too many more will be coming. Its so complicated and expensive to get a work permit/visa now.
