Keith! The proverbial piece of string question please.
If i could prove that i had 600 pounds p.m disposable income after rent etc, plus a bit in the bank (how much?) and no debts would that be enough do you think? The income is from my State pension and is guaranteed. My wife already has a NHI number as a get an allowance for her.
The sum mentioned is the amount that my eldest son, wife and my grandson of 11 seem to manage quite well on after making the mortgage payments. Well, a small Filipina, a 2+yr old girl and a pensioner, albeit a very fit and healthy one, are not going to eat anything like as much as they do that is for sure!. They also live in Kent which will be a bit more exoensive, for certain things than Lancashire where i wish to go.
Any thoughts on the above would once more, be very welcome. I shall never give up (in true Churchillian manner) and will get them over there no matter what!
All the best
John
