Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
And here I thought you preferred the teacher-student pairing over the I-Ron May-Bot as your main reason for moving...
No Brexit is the reason for moving. It looks like Maybot is going to be removed by another horrible person of some sort. This is not surprising. No idea which horrible person yet...
However, that doesn't change the reality. Brexit is why we are moving and why thousands of others are doing the same.
To put into perspective, my wife has lost about 80% of her business due to this mess. That's not simply because EU citizens are not coming over anymore but also due to the uncertainty so people are not spending money as they don't know what's going to happen.
That's more than enough reason to leave. However, add in how unwelcome we feel now and you realise that moving is the only option. Why stay in a hostile environment?
The weather side is a plus but it does rain there and apparently the winters can be a bit harsh. Summers are definitely better though. We're looking forward to the change. Timeline is a bit up in the air but at least we're heading in the right direction.
It's just unfortunate the currency is taking a major hit... :/
