Hi Quentin,
Thanks for that Russ. It gives me a start and something to look at closer.

Is there anywhere that may be suitable within Europe, I hear a lot about Bulgaria and Croatia is this just hype or are they genuine possibilities?

As I said I am willing to look at anywhere really, as long as I can find property within my price range, schools are good and, well, things aren?t too much like England.
Many Thanks
