As there does not seem to be a section devoted to this thorny question, is there anyone on GN who has [successfully] relocated back to Blighty? As you may remember, we have been away since 1975 which is an extremely long time and during which period, many things have changed drastically.
There are two major pulls here : one is our family, as our DGDs of nearly 10 and 8 mushroom daily, and the other is
that it is difficult [but not impossible] to grow old and infirm in a foreign language. Now please don't get me wrong, we do speak adequate French, but of course there are specific Latin-based terms which are virtually impossible to understand in one's own language, let alone a foreign one. We have both necessarily had to be in hospital and withstood the challenges, but would prefer not to endure a repeat of this sojourn, despite that the care was excellent. All input from returned residents would be much appreciated, good or bad. Thank you in advance.
