I currently work from home with my wife in a non-IT related business, but I'm starting to think about other options.
I used to be a developer in the UK 10 years ago (asp, vbscript, SQL) for around 4 years but haven't really done anything since. I've been recently dabbling with Python and Javascript and I intend to learn more Javascript including NodeJS, ReactJS, etc.
It's probably not going to come to anything but would my age be a problem if we decided to return to the UK in a couple of years assuming I was pretty good at Javascript and associated frameworks, etc. and had projects on github, contributed to open source, and maybe a bit of freelance experience under my belt?

Also what's the UK like for remote jobs these days? Is it getting more common or not?

Any opinions are useful, even if they put my mind at ease and we carry on as we are! (Which isn't bad!)
