I'm looking way into the future tbh, perhaps if I end up on my own in years to come, though I dread the thought of losing my wife.
But she does have a large family and couldn't bear to be away from the grandkids especially, so it won't happen for a long time.
I would seriously move abroad if I got the chance but who's to say what the world will be like then?
Time will tell
Floydy, l will explode if l get to much of brexit, so l am trying to
ration myself, without much success so far,
On the rest of your post would like to say first,l meant no critism
of you, l understand we all have different cicumstances etc.l
was trying to convey my belief that life is short and l dont think
we should take to long with decisions, l was probably a bit rash
in mine, but it all turned out wellso far.
I would definitely encourage younger people to consider buggering
off given the chance, l dont think this old country of ours is going
anywhere fast judging by the quality of leadership being displayed
in the POS HOC at the moment.
In your own case Floydy, you've probably left it a bit too long,
Maybe consider somewhere quite near, like the canaries or
somewhere else that your good lady could live with, and that your
grandkids could visit easily, they would love that!
It all depends on what you both can accept.
Bit like brexit really
And dont forget, children grow up and start their own lives
You will be left behind by them
Sorry about this Floydy, l must sound like an agony aunt
I will sound off now
Very Best Regards Donkeyman.
