Mine is very vivid in my mind and I can see the day perfectly when I went to on Holiday with my family and my sister to Aberystwyth (not the correct spelling) when I was probably about 7.

My Grandparents were caravan enthusiasts, weekends in the New Forest and summers in Wales were always wonderful... rope swings over rivers and plastic flip flops, it just doesn't get any better than that!

One summer we were at a camp site near a beach, but to access it you had to walk over a bridge, our caravan was one of the ones closest to it.

I was sitting on the grass, can't remember what I was doing, but I'd caught sight of someone waving a bucket and spade and realised it was my sister. She was 3 years younger than me so she got my attention because I thought something was wrong.

From the middle of the bridge, loud as you can imagine she yelled... "Brige, I've got a winkle and it keeps coming out!" To this day that makes me smile....

Then we were in a shop looking at postcards and she pointed to one with two 'traditionally dressed' welsh ladies washing leeks...

The caption said "Don't cook these two Blodwynn, we;ll save those for tonight" Then my sister told my Nan that it was the same postcard she'd sent her friends. Not sure if she was invited to play at their houses much after they got those in the mail.if the other 5 year olds didn't get it, I'm sure their parents did.]]>

I quess we could get all the families of the kids that have been abused over the years by the priests to protest.


point is there is no legal way we can stop the place being built if they follow all the rules & regulations of the P.Z in that area the CITY has to grant them the right to build
if not it would be religious discrimination ..


we dont have that in america do we ????

Any British ex-pat living outside the UK is eligible to transfer their frozen UK pension benefits. In addition this also applies to any Nationality as long as they have pension benefits in the UK.

The money in your fund can be transferred via QROPS to your bank account in the Country you are now living in. In many cases the whole fund can be released TAX FREE.

Two major HMRC (Her Majesties Revenue and Customs) guidelines are
1. You must be between the ages of 18 to 75 and
2. To receive the whole fund you must have been residing outside the UK for 5 full tax years.

If you fall under these two guidelines you qualify for the whole fund tax free.

I have read some of your comments on Pensions and Pension transfer. You will find it very difficult to transfer pension benefits from the UK into another pension in another country.

You can however transfer you pension via QROPS (Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme) for more information log on to

There is an assessment form you may complete and i will contact you with more infomation

I'm Amy and I'm thinking of moving to France. I speak french and am about to complete a TEFL qualification to teach English so I'm not worried about finding work. However my partner is a joiner and doesn't speak french. I can help him learn enough before we go but the real trouble we're having is finding him work. Has anyone been in the same situation and has any websites or info?? If he can't find work then obviously we can't go but any help would be great.

Thanks in advance.
