Of course the situation could alter at which point I could leave at any point and resume my residency here.. No laws broken and I have received that of which I am fully entitled..
I will now give this advice freely to all British expats that are lucky enough to have retired old and young alike..Like me!
Resuming it is one thing, proving it if required is different. Some PCTs won't even take owning a house in the UK as proof of residency, and some require you to have been resident for 6 months before you can register as a resident.

I must admit..This conversation has really proved to be quite fruitful !!
I wonder what else I might be legally entitled to?? I`ll have to ask my Polish friend..He`ll know.
If your son is entitled to it and gets it then that's good for him. My arguement has never been about someone not being able to get something they are entitled to.
