living in Spain is a lot cheaper .to live because British old age pensions do not give you much choice.you have to always buy the cheapest things around.but in Spain you are able to live once more.No worry over heating.to cold in Britain.Most of your pension is spent on keeping YOU warm.but not in Spain .yes you might have a frost,but that is rare.Also we do not get all that rain.although some times you wish it would rain.so you don't need all them clothes to wear.Of course you miss some things.Your old friends you grew up with.Snow at Christmas.But with your idea we can watch more TV. Perhaps might start some thing for British radio archives to listen to our favourite shows of long ago. Family Favourites.Billy Cotton Band Show,The adventures of PC 49.Life with the Lyons.Have a Go.to name a few.maybe just maybe.you could look them all up for us .And we could download them onto disc for our British Neighbours.Or radio plays from Britain and America.For us to listen to.what a Triumph that would be.for all of us.the entertainment would be great.

You can get all of those programmes and more ( ITMA, the Goon show etc ) on  BBC radio 4  extra, on your tablet, kindle, or computer. I carry my kindle tablet around and listen all day and all night
