Currently looking to relocate to Girona with my young family- looking for some advise on local living, expat groups/Hub what the lifestyle is like, tips on making the move with a young family and any help will be grateful. I speak 3 languages- Spanish being my mother tongue but my wife is English so want to make sure that there is a good hub for her to feel like she is not isolated.

any tips and advise is welcome- we are looking to do a weekend trip in September so happy to meet with anyone who has done the move we are looking to do.

Gracias

Hello. We bought an apartment in Sant Feliu de Guixols. We want to buy a contemporary design rug for the living room. Can somebody recommend a store in my town, in Girona, or another  nearby town,  which has a good selection of modern rugs. I have mostly found stores which sell oriental/Persian style rugs. Thank you for your help.

Hello, I am Sarah from Ireland, actively seeking a  Summer job. Fluent in English, I bring a friendly demeanor and possess familiarity with Lesartit, Girona, having spent my summer holidays there for the past 13 years. 

There are over 500,000 UK Ex-pats living in France and Spain many of whom are retired old age pensioners.

About 10 years ago Iain Duncan Smith called for wealthy pensioners who do not need benefit payments such as winter fuel allowance and free bus passes benefit payments should voluntarily hand back the money to the government. I would enjoy reading the audited statistics of the money repaid.

Shock horror when all UK Ex-Pats living in France and Spain had their Winter Fuel Allowance cancelled.

The then Work and Pensions Secretary explained that calculations were made on official temperature figures for each country, based on a five month winter that represents the coldest time of the year in the UK, matching existing criteria used by the government for other forms of cold weather payment.

In response to questions about recognising the variance of temperatures depending on altitude and region, Mr Duncan Smith said the government had looked at a system of weighting temperatures for areas with heavy populations of British pensioners, as opposed to calculating using figures for each whole country. But as the highest concentrations of British pensioners were often found in the warmer parts of European countries, it would have meant at least as many countries would be excluded as under the adopted scheme, if not more.

On the complaint that warmer overseas territories of countries like France, Spain and Portugal had skewed the results for British pensioners in those countries, the Work Minister said that European law would have to be changed for France’s Caribbean islands, Spain’s Canary Islands and Portugal’s Atlantic islands not to be included in the calculations.

The changes implemented including the system of weighting meant that the measurement of temperature was altered to suit the new criteria thus denying UK Ex-Pat pensioners the Winter Fuel Allowance

For those of us UK Ex-pats that live full-time in France and Spain

we know just how cold the winter months may be.

Please view my UK government petition

to try and reinstate our much needed benefit to keep warm in winter.
