Wish I had the guts and bravado to just up and leave UK. I have no family living near me, no children, no partner at the moment and find it so hard to make friend in the South as a Northerner especially a single female in her early 40's.
I feel my life is slipping past and I'm just commuting to London, and then vegging on the sofa and then spend all weekend playing catch up with the house and garden etc.
I love Egypt, sun, holidays and think the UK does not offer a good quality of life any more for me what with prices soaring and overcrowded transport and I certainly do not want to retire here, I'd be too scared to go out of my own home at night if I was elderly.
I just worry about giving up work and being bored, I get bored after a weeks beach holiday and I'd need to work, and being a single girl in Egypt is quite daunting which is why I bought in a complex so I can stay by the pool if I don't meet anyone willing for me to tag along to the beach with them.
and not speaking the language, running out of money etc.......... oh dear!
