Hi, can anyone over there give me some info as to cost of living ect

Food shopping generally cheaper than the UK. Electricity about 90 euros every 2 months, water bill about 70 euros every 3 months, telephone line rental 42 euros every 2 months, internet charges 18.44 monthly (3pm-10am and all weekend). The equivalent of council tax is about 120 euros yearly, car insurance about 450 euros yearly. Car tax is dependent on how big the engine size (large abut 100 euros small about 50) thats yearly.If you live on an urbinization then you will have community charges ours are 200 per year.I think thats about it, hope that helps.
PS this is based on a 2 bed quad villa.
