Well you can still pick up a new 3 bedroomed house in Chiang Mai Thailand for £25-30K (even at today's exchange rate), and it's pretty hot there all year round, so there are still a few options, even for Brits

If you can't afford it , don't do it.

Yeah, most of us! You just learn to live with it. I can remember when the Franc dropped from 11 to the £ to 7, shock horror! We survived it, and we will this too. You just eventually get on with it:spit:
