@hybotics I don’t know. Ireland will do it if you have one Irish grandparent, but I don’t know about anywhere else.

@kdfrawg I wondered about Narbonne. Not for something permanent, but for a sort of extended sabbatical. So many options. We might need to travel a bit first to find the right place. :)
Shame we don’t really like the travelling part.

@kdfrawg When Mr I retires, which probably won’t be very long, we’ll see… It depends a bit on how things are with my parents too.

@larand I’m not eligible unless he gets it, then we go and live somewhere else for long enough for me to claim it (that’s three years for Ireland, not sure about other countries). Of course, as Ireland is staying in the EU, we could live anywhere in the EU.

@kdfrawg We’re not particularly thinking of leaving. Just keeping our options open.

@kdfrawg There was an article in the Guardian today about the increase in applications for citizenship of EU countries post Brexit. I’m too English, but Mr I has enough Irish blood. It’s been interesting looking into his family history. His great grandparents couldn’t read. What would they have made of where their descendants are? And that they might want to come back to the country their children were so keen to leave.
I look at my mother with her great grandson. There doesn’t seem to be such a big distance between them.
