Drop Off Charges Etc.
The only comment I wish to make about drop off charges from an ex-Pat enjoying living outside of the UK is three words - RIP OFF BRITAIN!
Also regarding Border Controls - the Shengen Agreement is named after a place in Luxembourg where the agreement was signed - but not by the UK. In theory you can drive from the North Cape of Sweden right down to the border of Spain and Gibraltar without ever having to show your passport. No wonder the people living and working on the Continent of Europe get fed up when they come up to the UK Border - we are all supposed to have free movement. Before the Daily Mail and Telegraph brigade start going on about Johnny Foreigner the problem about immigration should have been tackled years ago but it wasn´t and the UK is now paying the price for letting in too many from outside Europe and the Commonwealth.
