I also trained in the UK and subsequently slaved for the British National Health Service for a number of years. As a Leica nut I had always wondered why my monthly UK salary would not even buy me a M6 (on topic!) so I quit and came to practise in Hong Kong and have not looked back since. Now I can have as many Leicas I fancy :-) The down side is my other hobby is costing me a lot more: cars typically cost twice as much here compared to the UK. Which part of Scotland are you in? We have a family cottage there bought in the '30s.
