Where would you move?

[Grizzly]

If money and employment were absolutely NO factor I might seriously consider moving to the Fife region of Scotland---great golf, beautiful scenery, and only a couple hours away from the opportunities o do all those other things I love, as well as wear a kilt without sticking out like a sore thumb.

Sorry Jeff but you still would stick out like a sore thumb. Have spent quite a bit of holiday time in Scotland and in all that time apart from myself I have only ever seen one person (other than tourists or tour guides) wearing a kilt as normal attire. In fact you will spend most of your time being photographed by overseas tourists. Even resident Scots know your a tourist if you are wearing one. Its sad as you would expect there to be quite a lot of kilties in show but last time I was there last August my other half would wander off in front of me as I was deluged by photo hunters wanting a pic of a "kilted Scotsman" I didnt have the heart to tell them I was anglo welsh. Although it wouldnt have made a difference. .

That being said, and in line with the OP I would quite happily retire to the West Coast of Scotland. Stunning scenery, great people and mostly a great climate tempered by the gulf stream. Mull or Skye would be my choice although I have to say it would be for retirement reasons as there are not many opportunities for employment.
