Could we move permanently to Spain?

Hey,
We are seriously considering moving to the Costa del Sol. We go on Thursday for 12 weeks for a practice. We would like any info, good or bad about living there. We love Spain, our longest visit so far 6 weeks. We must be ditherers!! We are retired, no really strong family ties, and are getting increasingly fed up of the doom and gloom of England. We think possibly cost of living would be cheaper, and perhaps we would benefit for a more laid back approach to life. Anyone out there who has something to say about this? or am I painting a rose coloured picture of something I don't know much about or is it better than here?
Thanks in advance

Hey Jordan,
Go for it, better to have tried than sit wishing in 10 years time when you are sat in on another cold winters night you should have done it? Try it and if you don't like it then come back but on the other hand you could just find you love it, don't waste time thinking go for it, we are trying to get to Australia, but if not Spain cause anywhere seems better than England at the moment!!

GOOD Luck, have a cocktail on the beach for me!!!!
