I heard a few scary stories about Spain ten year back or so about the land grab and as you say a lot of illegal goings on with people's lives and savings planted into snide plans.i like our history, but so much is being lost bulldozed or it offends, i look back at where i grew up and its just all housing estates, pretty soon there wont be much left here.i like the idea of getting out but the nearest we got was picking out the land in spain, alicante, buying it ' brown site/illegal build' then when we came back, the land grab started and that was that, we would have lost the lot , then i thought lincolnshire near to inlaws at raf kirton in lindsay, but she wouldnt have any of it
For us France was a safe bet. A lot of Liverpool has been partly dozed and estates are everywhere. Still some really shïtty places there. Some of the people are nice but too many bad ones about....
