Fantastic thread, inspirational comments. Keep them coming...
As many will know I have spent the last few years back and forth to Australia (now-ex- Wife, being Australian) I have had the big house with the big swimming pool and endless amount of land etc. etc.. Last year we decided to return to UK for good, put our son in a very good local school and settle down. Cut a long story short few months ago my wife returned to Australia with our son and has since moved on with another man. Half a million quid later I find myself back where I started 7 years ago, gone complete full circle.
Was not going to mention any of this as this is not a sob story, just makes one consider things in a new light, you can have it all, I can't take my good friends and family support, material items come and go. Who knows where I will be in 12 months time, probably still here. Where ever you end up you will still be British and moan about the weather. Either too hot or too cold.
Greece is a fantastic place, lovely people. Great food. I used to spend a lot of time in Tenerife, north of the island where it was quieter and laid back, suited me well. If I had more time and inspiration I think I would consider opening a pool bar somewhere. Always fancied that idea. Guess I could follow that up now, my world has changed some what..
