You can be born and bred in U.K. and still be classed as a foreigner, I have had it ever since leaving Surrey. Would get it there as well now if I ever went back lol

We may be Ex-pats, strangers, foreigners....
But nobody slags us off for being immigrants..

Might be due to the fact that we're not on benefits, bring money into the country and Pay our way.

Well that seems straight forward enough if you are going to live in a Country with residential I see no problem with having to get a Spanish driving licence and also keep your UK licence current as well so you can drive in the U K if you return for any periods, the Brits living in Spain must be keeping their U K licence up to date now anyway.

We're Greek residents but Greece decided that we didn't need to change our driving licenses. Just as well as the process was taking forever... Greek bureaucracy!

I used to be patriotic. Bigoted, really.
Then the lunatic fringe took control. The weather aggravated our aging bodies and minds.
.
I looked for a better ' ole , took off to spend time there..
and haven't found any reason to return, except for a brief refresher course.

Ah, Refreshers, I remember eating those sweets when I were nobbut a lad.

Do you remember Love Hearts? They are still available but now called Kind Hearts. I always keep some in the house after a tip I got. If you suffer with heartburn sometimes, don't buy antacids, buy Kind Hearts. They are just as effective but taste nicer.
