Six years

[china red]

do not move to Coventry

whereabouts in Coventry is the job? there's a lot of nice smaller towns just south of Coventry that are a far more pleasant option for commuting

Exact location not too sure but I guess somewhere close to Jaguar/Landrover where ever they may be (i'm not probably going to find out they are not anywhere near there)

that's probably Gaydon then, quite a way out of Cov

The refreshing thing about the UK, when I come back, is the lack of McDonalds, Burger King (Insert your own fast food chain) 'restaurants'. They are 10 a penny in Europe so its good to see the health concious UK taking a stance.

It's not exactly hard to find one though is it.

TBH if its there I would probably commute daily from Swindon area anyway.  The third choice is to move to Sweden but at the moment whilst job would be good is too difficult to arrange from China.

So moving back to the UK after six years in September.  What new and wonderful things can I look forward to in our great country?

Rain, potholes, slow traffic, whinging, expensive cost of living, queues, lots of reduced olympics merchandise, strangely dressed yoofs, league one football, crap music, awful telly etc - so nothing new really.

On the plus side - Oxford are still in league 2.

Welcome Home

So pretty much the same as when I left.  Other than we were league two (I left the day Denis Wise quit as boss) and the pox were in the BSP.

Oh, and traffic will be nothing compared to this place

Live in the cotswolds quite a few people live in our town and work in Gaydon. Chipping Norton half way between Swindon and work.

I don't care what people say, I'm really quite fond of Britain.

Welcome back.

Coventry to Swindon is okay, wouldn't want to do it myself personally but then I've got used to a 10 minute commute for the last year or so.

I'm moving to Norway in a few weeks, Scandinavia certainly seems like a good option for those who want out of the UK.

I was seriously considering the Sweden job but in the end it would have meant me moving there and then the wife applying for her visa which takes 3-4 months.

We're planning to return to UK next year from Ireland - not really my choice but Mrs KerryRed is growing restless for the Fatherland.

Don't know if I'm looking forward to it or not - football notwithstanding

I'd love to do something like that

Find a foreigner, charm her with your English wit, marry her and bingo - you've got a residence permit
