With the economic situation in the state its currently I think I would wait and see how things go. You could go and find life quite worrying until Brexit is sorted out. Property prices are very uncertain as is the outlook for Brits moving to the EU. I urge caution.

I'm 68 and like many others I need to downsize as the decorating and general maintenance demands of a Victorian house are relentless .
I live with a large mad dog and have a horse I,m healthy and solvent with a few friends but no family near and lead a very comfortable life. I haven't moved until now as I didn't know where to move to.

Until I visited a friend in Spain!!

Am I mad to sell up and move?There is something scarey about selling up but I will rent for a year and if it doesn't work out I'll come back and buy a place .My friend will have my horse and my dog will be with me. My children are all for it.

I've given myself a year to clear out the house and think about what to do.Half of me is so excited at the idea of selling everything and getting out of my very comfortable rut but the other half is terrified!!
