For working it depends on what type of visa/permit you come in on if you get a retirement permit You can not work.The money you have can last if you stay away from bar girls with the top up of your OAP in 7 year if retiring here forever it will be tight don't forget health insurance it's about £100 per month good luck 🙏🙏
