no probs for such a big move its always best to do some homework instead of just assuming you can turn up anywhere in the EU and do as you please, as previously stated.
go and check out tripadvisor too as there will be plenty of people who can give you very specific advice about living/working abroad in the country/city of your choiceLive each day like its your last because one day you'll be right0 -
well thats not strictly true:

you need a valid passport to remain in France, im pretty sure you don't need that for Scotland.
as someone recently told me
"If you really think I'm going to blindly take the word of a random internet user making then you have another thing coming...
(sorry had to para-phrase that but thought it was somewhat apt)
If you want to be so pedantic, no you don't need to have a valid passport to remain in France - you can become a resident/citizen. Exactly the same as you'd have to in Scotland (the OP already being a resident/citizen obviously).
It's very apt, and should certainly be applied to me too. Unlike you were however, I'm not demanding people take my word for things because "I kinda do stuff like that at work".0 -

you cant just bowl up and decided to become a french citizen instantly so therefore the OP would still need a valid passport for his stay.

i never demanded anyone took my word for anything, everyone should do their own homework, as can be proven by your miss information on this post, the point i was making was that i have slightly more knowledge than your average person about the subject at hand, rather than just another keyboard warrior who assumes they know and then gets huffy when someone has the audacity to disagree with them.
In conclusion you're starting to bore me so lets just leave it there.Live each day like its your last because one day you'll be right0 -
Obviously, i do not want to come back to the UK, and i will do anything to remain abroad, but i do not believe i could tell their airport/security staff that, or could i tell them that if i am a EU citizen myself, and have freedom of movement?
Well are you an EU Citizen? If you are, no problem. If you aren't, then we'd need to know what your citizenship actually is to be able to give a sensible answer.0 -
You don't need a return ticket (assuming you're a UK citizen). I've been to Europe loads of times on a one-way ticket, not a problem. Including to Denmark.
Once you're in the Schengen zone there are no passport controls, I drove from Rotterdam to Koper (Slovenia) without having to show my passport.0 -
If you are doing a European tour, hopping from one country to the next, then why would you have a return ticket; you might come back via a different route/method than you went.0

Denmark is expensive. It's a lovely place with a high standard of living but prices to match. Could you set up some interviews before you go?0
