Just wrote SP re the financial intricacies of moving to UK. Hopefully he will have time to share some insights.
Sibling 1 has advised me that I can’t take a misanthropic perspective on hosting friends. I was planning on telling people I’d tour them around, but they were only allowed to stay one night. This is based in part on Peter Mayle’s observations on his ‘friends’ who showed up out of the woodwork expecting to stay a couple of weeks at a time and be chauffeured, fed, entertained. She says I can’t set limits or get a too-tiny place to live. Hunh.
She introduced me to The Productivity Project by Charles Barkley. Enjoying it very much. Intend to use much of his ideas in the whole planning and execution of a move.
