Fantastic country I go to Northern (arctic) Norway every summer for a weeks fishing 24 hour daylight in summer, but winter ........... 24 hours dark..........nah!
Although in the south around Oslo you will get daylight in winter I suppose.

I went to Northern Finland a little over 10 years ago. It was lovely, hot and sunny, the beaches were almost empty but with the cleanest, most beautiful white sand and the sea was clear. Can't believe more people don't go there on holiday. It was lovely, as were the people, on the whole

I'm staying here in Wales. I came here planning to stay 3 years back in 1984.

We live in Spain at the moment, but also still have our house in the Midlands, which we have owned for 32 years, and is lived in by our son and his lodger.

Ideally we would like to live in Pembrokeshire, but keep our Spanish house for winter sun and our Midlands house for when we fancied the city and also as a central base for UK travelling.

We've already got the two, but short of winning the Premium Bonds or my husband's book becoming a best-seller, we won't ever have the Pembrokeshire one.

So, in 2009 or 2010 we are going to live half and half UK-Spain and in summer 2009 we have a home exchange holiday in Pembrokeshire for three weeks.

A good compromise imho.

None of the above. I'd stay here.

If I had to leave the UK, first choice would be Delhi, second somewhere in Israel - by the Galilee, perhaps.

If, and it's a very very big if that we had to leave, somewhere with a good education and health system , that's hilly and not too hot - Norway seems to fit the bill.

Or Canada. Specifically Vancouver.

Malaysia for me.
The kids are doing very well at a great school and I still enjoy tropical Telford so a few years away from now ..But it is on the horizon.

delhi ?????? :eek:

guess u like crowded places. last time i was in india about a year ago i saw on the local news, they had just inaugurated a 32 lane highway. toll highway 16 lanes each way linking delhi and a nearby city as many commute. guess what right after it was opened even on day 1 there were massive traffic jams with bumper to bumper traffic on the 32 lane highway and people were cribbing that govt ate the money otherwise they could have built a 64 lane one instead!!! dont know if things improved later after initial hitches
guess population control in that city is done by the number of people regularly run over by the notorious blue line buses there
