More people left the UK last year than in any year since current records began in 1991, statistics show.
Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) indicate that some 385,000 people left the UK for the long term in the year to mid-2006.
Long-term migration into the UK, meanwhile, was 574,000.

People are leaving after making good money & are living on good retirement pensions. A lot are going to live in better weather. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

If I were half my current age and had no family commitments here, I'd get out tomorrow.
I could still talk to you all, hear SOTS etc, via the Net.
