sorry if this post may bore some of you. but, im finally moving to spain 2moz! really looking forward to it! ive been waiting about 3 months for everything to fall into place….....packing in job, selling my pride and joy etc!

i wanted to post this from england, and then finish the post of in spain 😊

now that the day has come I do admit that im a bit nervous but i was expecting that i would.

i went out last night for a final drink, and went clubbing and realised how pathetic this country is when it comes to our drinking culture (what ever you want to call it) . saw two of my mates fighting each other over a poxy drink! and then when the night finished a huge fight broke out! i really dont know what goes through peoples heads! its a real shame!! i really wont miss all of that!

Just hope i’l enjoy it on the other side :down: 😉

anyways enough of me boring you lol, and finish the post off on the other side 😜

Hmm, really? I’m pretty sure we left that setting on. Can you just use the attachments feature at the bottom of the Post Reply page?

It sounds like you’re going to start to need a blog Luke! 😊

Congrats on getting to Spain though, that’s fantastic and good luck with everything. You’re right though, be careful not to think you’re on holiday all the time. 😊

Cheers Ex patriator, and thanks for all that advice you given me! really helped!

really wierd actually being over here now!

Congrats,
good to hear everything went smooth!
Let it all sink in for a week, and then realize life is exactly the same here, just different…

Cider, you tell me? Cidra!!!

Keep your posts coming Luke. I like that fresh attitude of yours “Through the eyes of a newbie” I’d like to see how your life in Spain works out for you.
Whether you’ll still have the wide eyed “It’s 33 degrees and I feel like I’m on holiday” attitude in a few months…..😊

Congrats on your move and good luck!

..and thanks for keeping us onlookers updated

Thanks everyone for the replys!

its starting to feel like home now here. also starting to get to know people in bars etc! love the lifestyle here, feel so much better in myself being here, eating more healthy, drinking loads of water etc. cant beleive how hot it is here for october/november! other day was 31 degrees in the shade :gulp:

All i need to do now is find myself a job! have been putting my name around and handing out Cvs and stuff! so fingers crossed!

Speak to you lot soon!

Luke
