I'm moving, I think.
TwinkyToes:
save up for at least 6 months and a plane tickey back if it doesnt' work out! then go and live off the savings until you find a job/get tired of england and move to somewhere better, like paris
mooface:
do you have any idea how depressed you are going to feel when you convert your dollars into pounds?! and then realize that the pound, although it is worth twice as much as the dollar, will only buy you half as much as the dollar does?! england does not make any sense!
i kind of wish people would stop posting boards about advice for moving to other countries. it seems really silly and pointless to me.

Gordon Brown?

I've never understod the atraction of Paris, or France for that matter. You now have to pay to use the freakin public toilets. If you're American, the people look down their greasy, unwashed noses at you like you were the piece of dog shit they just walked by. And you know why the river is brown? Its cause it isn't a real river, its an exposed sewage line. I found the whole city to be disgusting. The smell reminded me of the time I helped my local county fix a wastewater treatment plant. (Which is why you should never call the local Bishop, The Fueher in the middle of a catholic school assembly, but that's a different story).
As for the UK, I have a couple of friends who live there. They like it well enough. But the best thing to do before moving, make sure you have at least some place you can stay for several months and still be financially stable. Having a job and a place to stay is probably the best bet.

I actually think all of the problems the UK faces have their roots before most of the politicians of this era were even alive.
