Hubbys watching the match and I was going through some Uk property sites out of curiosity. I have depressed myself looking at the ugly houses in the Uk

I hope to god I never have to move back there.
Give me the pretty villas here any day.

Oh, there are some nice houses in the UK, it is just the rest of the crap that goes with living in the UK. My team are not playing, so thought i would do some work.

I suppose there are some nice houses if you have a lot of money but if we sold our house here we would not get anything as nice as we have back in the area we came from.
The ones I was looking at had only half the covered area as ours for the same money and they were depressing looking houses.
I had thought that houses in the Uk were cheaper than here but from what I have seen that is not the case at all.
Here, not only do we have a far better lifestyle but we have a lovely house with a pool and the sunshine as a bonus.

Well, i am from London, so no chance of me ever going back, even if i could afford it. A holiday maybe, for the rest, forget it. I left the UK nearly 22 years ago, and have never regretted it.

You could live in a tent in Hyde park

I spent most of my life living in foreign countries until my mid 30s.
Just never somehow managed to settle back in the Uk so had to get out before I went crazy
