RE: Colony
According to that map (Thanks Jan), the sea would have to rise over 30 meters to reach us here.

3 meters. That's my A.S.L. according to the OS Maps.
(and the road is 0.9 meters above the level of the front door).

Who said I haven't got a sense of humour.

The small holding in Norfolk has gone. So, dunno?
Wales is out, down South is definitely out, West Midlands Nope. North?? Too damn cold.
SWMBO was even thinking of emigrating but no one will have us. Something about being British.

Don't like the idea of the US, Thailand is appealing but SWMBO don't like bugs.
I can swear in 5 languages, the SWMBO in three if you count pure Dorset.
So looking for English speaking countries. That rules Londonstan out.
Many years ago was lined up for a job in South Africa but that was before it "changed hands".
Nope, dunno.
Any suggestions?

Good luck with that Paul.
Is the Isle of Man very self-sufficient ?

TBH - some of the nordic countries would be my area of interest given the choice...

COLD ? - mostly.
SAFE ECO SYSTEM ?- yes,by law, so food shouldn't be a problem.
PEOPLE ? - apart from the mad crusader dude , they seem friendly enough.

I don't know mate.

For you and the Mrs , will you be looking for remoteness,or isolated but not remote from other people ?
Trying very hard not to be paranoid.....and it aint getting easier.
