Hi Rich, welcome to the mad house. Thinking of going to Spain myself, when did you move there, have you got a web site?

Cheers

hi dave, been here 4 years, only started the signs up again 2 years ago tho, its slow but im in a slow area, you can get everything you need down here and its cheaper! but you carnt command the same dosh as england! but the lifes better. could have done with this forum 2 yrs ago, as ive had to do all the leg work of my own back. best find yourself an up and coming area to get into, no point going to malaga or alicante, the place is swarming with sign companys, im not saying you wont find work but youll be up against it from the start, do some research and try find were the brits are heading next alot are now coming back to spain from bulgaria cos its not all its cracked up to be!!
