Fantastic coastline and Islands very friendly, ECT.ECT. Oh, ..and the Female's are'nt too shoddy either! My sons girlfriend who lived with us for a year, was stunning! [She WAS a model] and a truly lovely girl. BUT, ALL her friends were just as Gorgeous as Her!...Norway.. 'Probably the best Country in the world!'

Its a Olympus E3 / 7-14mm lens. Pics taken in fully automatic modus, wich means it could have been much better quality if I knew how too use it.

Use it in the boat every day, and in every type of weather. It still works!

Just before you go getting too carried away:

Income tax - basic rate 28%, top rate 49%
Wealth tax - on all assets of upto 1.4% p.a.
National insurance - 14% (I think)
VAT - upto 25%
Cost of a beer - £5+ / 500mL
Cost of a coke - £5+ / 330mL
Cost of petrol - £1.34 / L

Not that these things are necessarily bad, just the grass doesn't always look quite so green when you take off the rose tinted specs!

As I said in my earlier post not necessarily bad - it still appeals more than the South of England! I believe their migration policy is relatively open so if its that good there's nothing to stop you.

You better be careful Poley! With posts like these you may get the Scots a reputation for being Close minded,... Anti English!! And .. EVEN Tight wads!
Or maybe your still hurting at England's early exit from the world cup!?

And £9 for a bowl of chips.

I thought my pal from the Midlands was about to expire on that uphill trudge.
