sounds good to me as i expected

the real draw in my mind is the potential to get up on a sunny sunday get in my 1m (not got the 1m either yet) and go for a fantastic drive in the mountains

is this easily done ?

We are thinking of returning to the UK after 5years here, so have been weighing up the pros and cons for a while.

Will miss from Switzerland:-
Public transport and cost (half fare card is exactly that) and my daily bus for 5 years has only been late twice (no really!)
Super warm housing even when it is -17C outside
Hospitals and medical care (we just had our twins born here and the Doctors/Nurses have been amazing)
Great Roads
Tax Rate
Pay Rate
Exchange Rate
Mountain Views
Mountain Bike trails
Not overly populated so plenty of places to go without queueing for years
No chavs (all teenagers seen unbelievably well behaved).
Everyone is super slim and healthy (although lots of smokers which is weird).
Anything to do with government (driving licence, visa etc) is done super quick (might just be Zug though)
Being able to pop over to France, Germany, Italy
Zurich Airport - is there a nicer calmer airport in the world?
Everyone seems to drive like they stole it (not many slow granny drivers here)
Exotic cars - how many Ferraris can you see in one day!
Clean air - no rain or wind
sounds great !

again that sums it up for me

how is the decision going ?
