However, it was some time after that when I decided I'd had enough of the UK and was considering leaving.
I'm now unsure tbh...

I want to stay in the EU, yet you voted for me to leave it!
Yet again on another thread someone telling a remainer to leave the country!
Very odd!
The latter are what were once independent nations each of which still have (thankfully) interesting and attractive characteristics.
The former is a political organisation with the intention of taking full control of its so-called member states.
I like the one and detest the other.

We will soon be out, you voted for it, the UK is also beautiful, most of it.
Move to a nice part and live your dream.
