Hi all

We recently went to Almeria to look at a property and the place is lovely, the house was lovely but i'm concerned about the 40 degree heat in summer, I don't think I'll cope with that.

Can anyone give me some pointers about where to look?  In an idea world I'd like it to be like 30 top whack and then just not below 5-10 degrees during the day in the winter.  I have thyroid issues among other things so my temperature regulation is totally off.  I'm the opposite of most poor thyroid sufferers too and can't keep the weight on so I do feel both weather extremes quite hard as there's not much of me.  All I know is that the UK is too cold for me and well 40 degrees is too hot - out of the frying pan into the literal fire!

However I crave the spanish way of life and my family and I are really keen to get out there so my ultimate wish list (if we could have everything we wanted) would be somewhere with weather no higher than 30 ish and not freezing in winter, somewhere close to a hospital and a town maybe, somewhere my hubby could get work as a mechanic so maybe a bit expat like to start with.

I know that's a lot of wishes but that's an ideal world scenario, mostly the weather thing really as we want to be comfortable over there.

Thanks x
