Greets from Finland!

This kind a website is so great! Never been to Scotland, but itīs in my dreams. Maybe even working there someday, if you have any need of nurses around

Oh, everybody needs nurses! But there might be a shortage of money to pay for nurses, or for anyone.

That's sad. In England they are hiring lots of health-care staff from abroad. I kind'a thought that they would do the same in Scotland. Aren't they? If I had to choose between those two, Scotland would win 100-0.

Oh, what I meant was about the whole British economic situation in general. The news is all full of doom and gloom. Of course, we probably need nurses, and there are lots of health care staff from various countries, I think.

So you can come here and have a slightly longer summer.

I haven't been following news from there, but also in Finland they keep saying it's economically bad everywhere and all the time everything is being "optimized" and so on. But still they are constantly seeking nurses in finnish magazines and federal forums to work in Britain and Middle-East. And the payment in both of those are about a double for the same work in Finland..

I'll be there some day, I'm sure I don't care about warm summer-days so much, I'm more a fall-lover. What I'd like the weather to be, it was a winter without three months in a row from -20 to -30 degrees celsius.. That's just annoying.
