How long have you had this desire to be ripped off, backstabbed, gossiped about, and made to feel like a prisoner in your own home Richard?

Cos that's what you're going to get!

Not if you're choosy about who your friends are. Rather than gravitating towards anybody who speaks your language.

Play nice boys.

To the OP - maybe if you could expand a bit further on your post....retired community/interests etc etc. It's a little vague - there are pockets of expats all over there. Anything more specific??

There are two great options for you one on the south coast and one on the west coast

BRIGHTON or BLACKPOOL, which do you prefer


Then again you might find more Brits in Benidorm or toriveja

There are little (and not so little) pockets of expats scattered all along the costas... You need to come over or speak to a property agent and ask them to show you properties in the expat areas.
