Thank you Coop, yes lot's of opinions you could spend several years reading the positives and negatives and still not make any decision. We don't make a huge living here and certainly are not looking to become millionaires in France just hoping for a better way of life. We are not passing on any opportunity and looking into any information we can gather. Signed up for French classes in the Autumn so there's a start! Will continue to read, read and read some more...... :)

Yes we thought the UK is not looking too great at the minute.... loads to think about and definately not narrowing our minds to any opportunities - thanks!

My Husband and I are seriously thinking abpout fulfilling our dream with a move to France. We have equity in our property and would probably sell up and use this to rent for a while until we find our feet. My Husband is a joiner by trade and I would want to get a job to contribute to French society. I have basic French language skills and am improving these by joining a class from September. We are not settled on any particular area although love the Languedoc. What would be the next step to renting? Are there any trusted sites or agents that anybody could recommend? Or any advice genereally? The information on the net is so overwhelming almost too much to narrow down and we would appreciate advice from anyone who has been in a similar position. I am 31 and my husband is 43 we have one dog and one cat who would be coming with us (advice on getting them across would be useful too!) Looking forwrad to any replies!
