But UK tax allowance is £11,500pa or over 65, mine is £11,830, hubby is 75 so his is over £12,000. My fuel monthly is also £55mnth(last year £50) 4bed bungalow, but only 2 people in it. I really dont agree that Spain is cheaper unless you,re allowing for a lot of smoking and drinking. I,ve just returned home this week after a month in Spain and all my fruit and veg and meat was cheaper here.My council tax is £140mnth, but my fuel is a lot cheaper and my IBI is €349yr. I think it all balances out, but cant equal the weather.
