Hello to everyone. When i come on here and read up on some of the threads, i feel quite depressed, but it hasnt put me off to come to spain. My situation is that my OH has a business in england, and he intends to keep it there, we have a mobile home on the coast which we bought last year, and we have a good life in england although the weather is horrid. The reasons we would want to come to spain are not to find work but to retire and we are only in our fortys. Life surely is for living and taking educated risks, and not to be so negative about the economic situation, yes we are aware that spain is going through its hardest time ever! and that there is no work for anyone, but being all doom and gloom about it isnt the way forward. Yes i agree it is important to let people know that it isnt all wall to wall sunshine, and there is a lot of heartache and the rules and regulations are completely different. But if poeple want to go to spain and try it out for themselves then they wont stop untill they have done it. We have bad unemployment in england, also debts rising, lots of crime, drug abuse, and thats to name a few, but its probably the way of life here, why people want to move to spain and such alike places, as there is more respect for families and people in general i think. We are coming out in september this year of course im worried but you have to be positive and no one would get anywhere in life. We are one of the fortunate ones who will be able to rent out property out in england and rent in spain, and when we come back to england for breaks we will go to our mobile home. We will also survive off my husbands wages. We have worked hard to obtain all these things and want to retire to a more family orientated, sunnier climate and hopefully spain will be it.
