Further Advances

In middle England now, the weather is rapidly deteriorating & one no longer ventures outdoors without a warm weatherproof coat. The nights are cold & dark & I feel very pessimistic about the weather for the next 5 or 6 months.
One of my friend thinks it's "snug & cosy", but then he just draws his curtains & turns on his beautiful "log effect living flame fire" & closes his mind to the outside world. I don't, I love England but hate the wintery British weather & pine so much for warmer long days. This of course is where my dream of being in Spain comes in. So many of my relations & friends have, & are, trying to disuade me from leaving these shores, some of whom still rely on me, as they have in the past, but they are all sadly mistaken. With the internet though, I will continue to help them in the short term. Since finally making up my mind in June to move, then flying in July to Spain to decide an area, & now returning yet again in two weeks to hopefully select somewhere, I have been in seventh heaven. The advice I have received from the members of EoS has been unbelievable & I extend my thanks to everyone, indeed I will be viewing some properties of site members in the time I am there. Also taking an interest are members who have recently moved to Spain & also those who are following me in my path to Spain, one has placed their property this week on the market in the UK hoping to move soon. For the encouragement I am also very grateful. So now my buddy (Richard) & I fly on the 24th October & we'll then hopefully embark on the next part of our transition, Richard looking for one place & me another. Exciting is'nt it ..........
