Thank you gatita and welcome to the board.
I have a friend, an eccentric Frenchman, who spends the winter in Newton Abbot, at Gaia House. Do you know it?(AKA HRH_MUngo)

S-D-W Yes I do know of Gaia House although I have never been there.
I have been an avid reader of this forum for a long time now, although I do not contribute a lot. I lived and worked for many years in Spain, returning to look after my mother. My daughter lives and works on the Costa Blanca, we are both bilingual which helps a lot with the legal side. We hope (husband and I) to return to live there within the next 12 months, its a question of gaugung the right time to sell our property here....... NOT easy!
but there are a lot of very good buys over in Spain at the present time, its very tempting to say.'to hell with it lets just go!'When man sacrifices the Love of POWER for the Power of Love, there will be peace on earth.0 -

Old? Well ...
Charmer? I think not! (Or maybe I've developed something too late in life?
)
Gatita, welcome, and good luck with your plans.Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930 -
Just harping back to the bank account business, I came across this article. It is suggesting that some folks have been taken to task by HMCR because they have a UK address, maintain a golf club membership, or keep a pet cat in the UK ...Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good. - Thomas Sowell, "Is Reality Optional?", 19930

I just wrote "harping back". And I suddenly thought, no, it should be "harking back". So I looked it up.

Happy Birthday SDW -- I often pop in and could not believe it when I saw about Fantasia -- very near us here in Spain but even more surprised by the mention of Gaia House near Newton Abbot. We live in East Ogwell and it is about a mile away in a hamlet of West Ogwell --- How small the world is!Try and do a good deed every day.0
