Well, the day has finally arrived when Sue & I say goodbye to Spain. We are currently in Santander waiting to board the ferry to Portsmouth. 

Fifteen years here have been great, but it's time to move on to pastures new, and some interesting new adventures.

I will still follow this excellent forum, and post (hopefully helpful!) replies where appropriate, but for very up-to-date information, I know that there are folks like my good mate Jim, and in La Marina, Yorkshire Lass, to name but two of many, who will keep flow of answers coming.

All the best to you all.

Geoff.

Thank you for your kind words Geoff, I’m sure our paths will have crossed in La Marina without us knowing! Have a safe journey and good luck with your new adventures.

You will be back!!  I was there at Xmas and was shocked at the prices and general deterioration of the town (Cheltenham) and country in general.

Once you have absorbed the culture shock I have no doubt that you will return.

You heard it here first...…

Kind regards

Richard

Good  luck Geoff, you have helped me with your answers in the past, along with Jim.   Funnily enough, my husband and I returned to the UK at the beginning of December after 14 years in Spain.  Never look back!  As you say on to pastures new, different adventures.  Good luck to you in the future.  

Kerry and Colin.
