They can move where they want.
I wish my ex would bugger off 200+ miles away instead of 2 streets away and take 'my' kids with her...

Is your access all legal through the courts or just an amicable agreement? I hope you dont have to travel to pick them up.
Probs best to wait for sols advice and not torture yourself over it until Monday. What a horrid position you are facing. I hope it works out well for
you.

I have a friend who cant move because the x has a right to decisions effecting the education of the kids, he does not want them to move school before
their exams and the court agrees...

As said, i would have thought she would have to wait till after the kids have finished at school. What age are your kids?
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

How old are your kids and how do they feel about moving 200 miles away?
They are the ones that will be most affected by your ex wifes decision..........

As mentioned by tomblyth and speedyxjs it is possible in some cases to at least delay a move like the one your ex wants to do until
children are older/ out of school etc. Unfortunately it depends on the circumstances and will cost money.
Your solicitor will be able to advise you best.
Best of luck in a difficult situation.

A work colleague of mine was facing a similar thing. He picked the kids up from school every day and his ex picked them up when she had finished work
at 8pm. He had then every other weekend. It was all working fine until his ex got another job at the other side of the country.
It went to court and it was decided that if she moved away, she had to bring the kids to him every weekend and then collect them after. He eventually
put in for a residency order for the kids. She moved back to stop the kids from leaving!!
I hope it all works out.
