So now is not a good time to think about moving elsewhere in Europe.
Why?
I have never said that I detest other EU countries (except France, of course. Too many Frogs.)
We have just returned from a few days in Vienna and found it a lovely place to live. We stayed in an apartment, so were pretty much looking after ourselves. Incidentally, I can highly recommend it if anyone should go to Vienna. It's called 'My Place' and is near to the Rosslände underground station: very convenient for access to the middle of the city and, for that matter, just about everywhere else. Their transport system makes ours look amateurish.
Vienna appears to be a very safe and attractive city and, yes, I could certainly live there.
As others have said, it's not the people (except for the Frogs, of course), but the politicians.
(I had a right laugh at what Marge said in the supermarket there, but I'll post that in the Humour section!)
EDIT:
And another interesting discovery.
In each of the several bars we visited, we found ashtrays on every table and people smoking away happily!
To be honest, it didn't bother me at all and even Marge took it in her stride!
However, what happened to the EU ruling that smoking in pubs, and all other public enclosed spaces for that matter, is now illegal?
I assume it's just another case of our glorious government doing everything they are told to without question, whereas every other country in the EU just ignores any diktat with which they disagree!
What a country we live in.
