Where abouts in Scotland are you DannyB? Looks like Lochernhead or something 
Its ok to think the grass will be greener moving abroad but infact in many cases its not. I could produce a list as long as my arm of people I know that have tried living in another country, all of them have returned. I fully understand though that you need to give it a go to satisfy your curiosity. Try it see how you get on, if it goes tits over heel its only a few hundred quid to fly home!!

I won't be moving from Scotland unless I become a multi-millionaire, I'm too used to the in your face manner we have here.
Australia is supposedly a modern day utopia to people, it has shit places and shit people as well.

Fantastic roads up that way aswell, just got to watch for the police as they like to use their speed guns to catch the folk out testing their machines

Up this way is alright also
Very quiet, The actual town Dingwall has some little scrotum's in it, but plenty of decent roads outwards to go for a run

True, my current place of residence is in a really nice area outside the scumhole that is Rotherham, I dislike England at the moment but my problem is that I've got a lot of ties with the place at the moment, I've bought my house there and I own some property in the same village also, I run my business from there and siblings have stopped there too so although England is probably a bad place to be right not, I'd need to sort alot out to move away.

I moved here to get away from people true though, if I ever need to see people they're only a few hours down the motorway.

Well, I was offered a job in Torremolinos, going back there in April. Will see how that goes and go from there.

i would deffo say go for it!
Even if you have a couple years away it would be worth it.
I moved so Spain couple years ago and have never looked back.
Just got sick of a lot of things with the UK and wanted to love in the sun etc.
If you need any help with anything let me know
Appreciate it mate If I moved to Spain it would be close to you

For the sake of some skirt, or because you actually like the place?
They're called "kilts", not skirts. Aj. would have known that.
