Thanks again Jeijei, your help is really appreciated.
I've registered with a couple of sites I've found that look to have decent forums and information guides in readiness for when (potentially) we go, which could be within the next 6 weeks.
I intend to join groups which interest me and I am going to look into the possibility of doing a TEFL qualification as well as I used to work at our local college delivering life-skills sessions to 16-18 year olds.
Keep the help & advice coming please, it's extremely useful!
Thanks again ^
