Russell Robert Knipp Posts: 1 Joined: 16th Feb 2009 Location: USA | quotePosted at 21:34 on 16th February 2009 Greetings from Sunny California to the POE Forum/Community. We have visited England on prior occasions, and we are very much "at home" there, with deep appreciation for the culture and history. So much so, that we hope and plan to settle there in the not too distant future. Jan (62 yrs) is planning retirement from federal government employment [National Bank Examiner] at end of 2009. Hobbies: painting, writing, and all fine arts. Russell (35 yrs) is a musician and classical pianist. Hobbies: literature and photography-->mainly nature/scenery. Please feel free to start communication. As we take our first steps to possible relocation, we seek and highly value "community" support and suggestions in this process. To begin, we plan a one-month initial stay early next year (2010). We are looking initially for self-catering accommodation at an "affordable" monthly rate--preferably in London/Greater London--to begin our relocation research. We have spent very long (very tedious) hours on other web-searches. Most web-advertised accommodations are very costly. Suggestions immensely appreciated. Thank you! ~ Janice Knipp - Russell Robert Knipp

Sounds like you have some big changes ahead of you, and I hope we are able to help in any way. Check out all of the wonderful pictures from all over the United Kingdom, although it may make your choice harder. |

You will get lots of help, ideas etc from a great bunch of family members from within that's for sure, apart from a welcome second to none. Enjoy the website and join in whenever you can on any subject that takes your fancy. Note also that you can book securely online your hotel accommodation via www.picturesofengland.com/hotels/ cheaper than by going direct to the hotels! |

I come from the Midlands so can't really help you with a London location - good luck with it all! Taking part in the forums is a great way of making friends before your big move - hope to see you around here! |
