How come you're expats?
> I met a lovely Irish woman in a bar in London, fell in love, changed my life - she wanted to go home so we went, 25y ago. TBH I think of 'expat' as applying to people (usually white professionals) who live abroad but intend to return home. I'm not one - I'm an emigrant (from GB) / an immigrant (to Ireland).


I've always wanted to move somewhere warmer and being from Brynmawr the choices are endless.
> Well Dublin ain't warmer or drier than south Wales!

Do you miss Wales?
> Only in a nostalgic sense. I like coming back, but these days it feels like visiting not coming home. I've lived away from Wales since I was 18 (France -> England -> Kenya -> England -> Ireland) and all I have left is CCFC, a few people & memories. And I started following the City when I was in London.

Do you think you'll ever move back?
>It's possible but unlikely. I'm an Irish citizen now, most of my friends are here and Ireland is my home.
