Hi there, new to this site so here goes. I am male(30), living in the uk with my fiancee(32) and two children ages seven and two. We have been together for 11 years now and i love her to bits. My fiancee's family are all maltese (mothers side)and apart from her pearents and two brothers, everyone else lives there, around zurrieq and mqabba. We go as often as we can, work and school allowing and we have finally decided that we really want to move there. has anyone got any advice on where to start coz i really have no clue if i need visa's, permits or what?? any advise or website addresses you can give me would be good. Thanks people, mike.
