Re: Living in Andalusia
A real necessity when you're thinking of moving to Andalucia is to learn some Spanish.
Unless you only want to mix and work with the British.
It is far from easy to find work, especially as there are so many Spanish also looking for work in this present economic climate.
Learn some Spanish and make friends!

I agree with Rachel. Learn a bit of Spanish and the rest just slots into place. I love it here and have no regrets.

Re: Living in Andalusia
If you learn Spanish you will have a very big advantage when it comes to employment. Very few Spanish know good english and bilingual people are highly sought after. It's surprisingly easy to pick up Spanish as long as you don't do the typical "mix with only enlish speakers" and make no effort.
