Re: Wife changed her mind

This team member is very much against giving it a go for a year or two - sorry but there is no guarantee that if one says nah, I hate it I want to go home, the other wont say "tough bikkies, I wont...

Re: Decision time

No, but I am close to her age and my own parents made the decision not to emigrate when they were in their 70s - their rationale at the time, despite me being an only child and having the only...

Re: Just started to watch The Heart Doctor
