text: relocating to the u.k.? my husband and i currently live in the u.s. but since bush has it so screwed up we're thinking of moving out of the country.  how is the lifestyle in london?  or other metro british cities.  we want to move next year.  also, i'm a teacher and i need to know the qualifications to become teacher for sped. i think you are doing the right thing although blair is a right wing looney tune like bush. london is very, very expensive for housing you would be better off moving to ne midlands (lincolnshire,norfolk,suffolk) where people are under much less pressure and are friendlier. the weather is better on the eastern side too. you will find it 5000% better than the us which is just dog eat dog and i'm alright jack, stuff you. it must be a terrible place to live. i am living in australia at the moment but was born in england, not far from the humber bridge. i have lived in canada and spent time in ny state. good luck jules.
