I wouldn't miss the UK winters, that's for sure.

I'd miss my English cottage garden even though I do grow a lot of Mediterranean garden plants.

I would miss the temperate climate. I love our summers.

But Portugal does sound very nice.

We are downsizing and moving to north of Lisbon to a small house with more land. I dont think I will miss much but what would you miss about the UK apart from family. The only sad thing is leaving the cats behind as I would worry about the stray cats and hunting dogs that leave there.
