Re: France - Spain or Accy
So, somebody says to me, "You gotta live in one of these 3 places."? Well, if I must, I'll go to France. I don't like Spain much and Accy's too cold and wet - it is in England after all.
Given free rein, I'd move to Malta. In fact, but for family commitments, I'd be living there now. The climate's lovely, the people are lovely, the food's lovely (the wine's a bit crap but you buy Italian), they have English as their 2nd language and they drive on the left. What more can you ask?

Re: France - Spain or Accy
Seems a bit daft to compare a small town to two whole countries.
Would you rather live in a nice area of Accrington, a French inner city slum, or a Spanish prison, sharing a cell with a big bloke who calls you his 'bitch'?

Re: France - Spain or Accy
I think that when you go on holiday, you always think you would like to live in the place where you have had a good holiday........but living there is different.
I would love to move out of this country and become a permanent resident in Oz.......I wouldn't mind Perth or Adelaide or Brisbane....the climate in those places is, on the whole kind....and even when it isn't particularly warm, there are usually blue skies. (when I say particularly warm...I mean to the Aussies.....we walked about in an Oz winter in shorts and T shirts....they were in woolly jumpers and boots)

Re: France - Spain or Accy
I think I would still choose to live in Accrington, its where my family are, but I'd love a place in Majorca.

Re: France - Spain or Accy
I would love to live somewhere warmer and a bit dryer than here, but with the option of coming back now and again.
I agree with all the positive points about Malta but it's a bit small. Spain would be nice but I don't speak much Spanish.
I kinda like the idea of Tunisia. There are quite a few British ex-pats living there and most Tunisian people speak French and my French isn't too bad.

Re: France - Spain or Accy
Id love to live in majacar , lovely part of spain , except the locals are taking a stand now , the locals are lovely and polite people however some of the people write in spray paint in BIG letters on top of the side of hills near the motorways on going into the town says " Britains go back!" which isnt the most welcoming message.
