Hi everyone 

This is not that important compared to what is going on at the moment, health is obviously number 1, but do you think there is a chance that 31st December deadline for registering for residency will be extended?

We were supposed to come out to look at somewhere to settle this month but obviously our plans are on hold, we have friends already in situ in Spain ( sold up lock & barrel) over there, and not sorted this out yet!?! 

Be interested in hearing your views as ex pats?

Stay safe

Thank you

Gail

The withdrawal agreement does provide provision for an extension of up to two years, but whether or not an extension happens depends almost entirely on Boris.

Hi Gail, you have a legitimate  question regarding your future . Life will go on after this Pandemic eases and even though all around the world there is disruption and uncertainty, it is vitally important our spirits must not be lowered . For most, there is a brighter future ahead. Keep up following the news announcements and adjust your next steps accordingly.

Best of luck for your future life in the Sun.

Stay safe !

Thanks Jim as always quite correct. Unfortunately both Rees Mogg and Johnson and the other treacherous, Machiavellian conspirators have repeatedly ruled out an Extension 😠😠😈

In this pandemic crisis Boris refused to join an EU alliance group set up to help other countries with medical supplies such as gloves, masks, and gowns etc. As of yesterday a Consultant ENT surgeon has died in Derby and countless other healthcare staff are dying because of lack of PPE. The PPE they have is either inadequate or Out of date ! A hospital in Hampshire were delivered PPE 6 years out of date such is the criminal incompetence of this villaneous UK government.😠

He refused assistance from China while some EU countries took up the offer - Spain for example and Italy.   ( had Spain listened to the Chinese gov and not ordered a supply of faulty viral test kits  from an unlicensed  vendor - all would have been well but China has also supplied other PPE.)

Germany and Switzerland which are amoung the largest manufacturers of Ventilators in Europe were asked by the EU commission to ramp up production and help supply Italy and other EU countries. YET again that malvolent buffoon Johnson refused !!! The USA another large manufacturer stated America come First in a nut shell ! Our new trading allie now that we have shunned the largest single trading block in Europe right on our doorstep and not separated by a vast sea. 😴😢😡

As is usual by successive UK governments - the law abiding, tax paying general public are treated with contempt and are and have been wilfully betrayed.  Example- just look at the shameless failure and sheer incompetence of the Foreign Office to rescue British travellers in all corners of the world ! Abandoned and the cretins in the FO can't even answer an emergency phone number or reply to emails of desperate people who in most cases are victims of sudden and unexpected lockdown with in some cases less than 24 hours to get to a port or airport of exit !! 😠

As usual the FO relied on the airlines and were terribly slow to realise the elephant in the room. The FO staff in embassies and consulates across the world are on the ground too ! Surely just like the unassuming traveller they too would have suddenly tuned in to the emergency situation? The FO staff have buildings, vehicles, resources, local contacts - If they really could not get people on rescue planes because countries closed borders and airspace further exacerbating the problem could have had at very LEAST offered some type of temporary sacturary. A room, a lift to a capital hub, a list of possible accommodations,  health advice, arrange a collective rescue hub - just something better than NOTHING?   At LEEAST pick up the bloody phone 😠

I survived the Tsunami in Thailand by God's holy eternal grace and mercy. Let me tell you the FO did barely NOTHING. In fact it was the Swedish embassy that did a huge amount of life saving work amoungst other foreign nations period !

Yet again this imbecilic , Oxbridge educated, privileged government have failed the British public as has the FO. They should hang there heads in Utter SHAME 😠

Meanwhile we get thrown in the meat grinder to pick up the pieces of our shattered lives YET AGAIN 😢😢😢

Rant over. Sorry to you Jim and one and all. After this pandemic things on all levels MUST change for the greater good of all of us on this planet. We have had a final warning I guess so it would be foolish not to react positively and proactively. 

God bless, stay safe, be well, survive and rejuvenate 😆😆😆

Sorry Les, too much to take in I know. However I hope you and other dog walkers out there are taking your dogs for a brisk 5 - 10minute walk round the block and not a long leisurely ramble around the region like you might have done before the contagion hit spain and lockdown was instigated on the 14 March.? 😯😕😮

May I remind you and others that these are NOT NORMAL TIMES please.  We all have to make sacrifices and doctors and nurses out there are making the ultimate sacrife to keep ALL of us safe right now.  I am certain your dog will be fine with a shorter walk. However People are dying at an alarming rate - as of yesterday 838 people died from Covid19 in 24 HOURS. 

6528 dead total. 78,797 cases and RISING.

Just a gentle reminder for you to contemplate on hopefully your brisk walk around the block.

These are perilous and unprecedented times with a new killer virus out there. The sooner everyone understands that the better. Sacrifices on all normal activities have to be made if you want normality of sorts back !! 😤😤😤

Stay safe everyone,  yes please keep up the good humour and banter but don't try to forget the nightmare out there in the hospital's across Spain 😢😢😢
