Apparently they don't have the manpower to even do the customs checks on goods that they're supposed to do. So the strict checks on goods are only being done on the EU side. My European removal clients have a Customs Agent in Europe to process all the paperwork relating to bringing goods in. Going back into Britain with stuff is no bother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm pretty certain that the peeps that voted for Brexit didn't know they'd have to exist under those rules now because the vast majority didn't listen to the argument properly. They were blinded by the bollocks spouted about immigrants and how much more money we'd have to build hospitals, infrastructure etc 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the rules that the UK wanted and were instrumental in getting them implemented when they had a seat at the top table in the EU. The same rules that anyone from a non-EU country have to abide by, so it's not singling the Brits out, it's the rules applied to all non-EU citizens. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing is that apparently Spain is refusing residency to third country nationals if they have a criminal record. They're obviously doing checks on people now! And even if they meet the much higher financial thresholds needed, if they've got form they'll be refused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that but I get free rego (road tax) on one vehicle although I have to pay the third party insurance so my vehicle costs me 50p a day to keep on the road, comprehensive insurance is £11 pm and petrol is £1 a liter. Life is good for a pensioner here, actually just got an increase in the pension to £640 a fortnight. YMMV 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted October 14, 2023 Author Share Posted October 14, 2023 Got the new mobile set up so I tested the camera when we went to feed the horses. Pics seem a lot sharper than the old one, and the colours are more vivid! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
