UK Driving for Over 70s
Anyone dealt with the problem of UK driving with your Spanish licence for over 70s?  There's plenty of info that you can drive for up to a year on a Spanish licence, but then there's the caveat that it will expire when you turn 70.  Beyond that, there's no information on the DVLA section of the gov.uk website.  Has anyone found any answers for this?

Money Transfer FUE - UK
When we purchased a property in FUE we were guided by the Solicitor to use a specialist firm, Currency Direct, to action the transfer. Their broker was very enthusiastic in his sales spiel and actioned the transfer after “monitoring” the markets on our behalf. However I am sure I could have obtained a better deal on the same day had I used Wise

I have used Wise for all transfers of much smaller sums since and found the service excellent.

Unfortunately the time has come to sell and wa

UK driving licence post brexit
As many know, we (residents) should have swapped UK licences for Spanish ones prior to 'B' day. Which is what I did. However I recently met two people who didn't for various reasons. One of whom has just been 'done' by the Guardia. The other person's situation seems rather unfortunate, as they are European but lived in the UK for a while and swapped their countries licence for a UK one. Not being British they weren't so Brexit aware as UK nationals. So they seem to be in rather an unfortunate

Removal firms from UK to Fuerte.
Hi,

We are hoping to move to FV in May or June. Any advice on removal firms from the UK to there? Woodside seem to be the most well-known. Any feedback on them or other options please?

Also, any firms for possible pet transfers? Our dog is too large for TUI flights direct to Fuerte so will probably have to be by road. Could fly to Gran Canaria but it's fiddly coordinating our and our doggo's arrival!

Thanks folks :-)

UK Mobile Phone Contract
Finally, my mobile phone operator in the UK (3) has caught up with me! After 3 years living here, they have noticed that I've exceeded the fair use policy on roaming, plus, my contracts (2 UK phones) are about to expire and the new contracts I've been offered are 50% more expensive (minimum data/calls etc) or 125% more expensive (8Gb data/calls included) AND I have to pay £2 per day, per phone for roaming!!  My £6 a month will become £75 per month!! (And 2 contracts means £150 per month).
