hi all
I have been thinking about what i would personally miss most about UK and it's probably going to be the little things that we take for granted (other than family & friends) it would be interesting to find out beforehand, i know it will be different for everyone but we move out in April 2008 so do I need to bring my HP brown sauce by the crate???

As i've been looking for long term rental i'm sure iv'e seen the picture you have on your post for rental maybe it's next doors?? Are you happy you made the move? We have a lot to sort out and lots of options will the introduction of the euro make house prices alot more expensive.

Hi Alison
Been in Cyprus now 14 months, dont regret moving here at all. What i miss is family and friends, but slowly but surely they are poping out to see us which is great. Cyprus has so much more to offer, and i think you would get loads of replies if you asked what expats dont you miss from the uk.
