Re: Back in Scotland

You're in my old stomping ground - I used to live in Pencaitland, just up the road from the 'Burgh. I was back last year on holiday and had tears in my eyes driving round East Lothian, it's so...

$40K in Canada is a fairly low salary and wouldn't go very far. GBP50K would give you considerably more purchasing power.

Re: Wanting to move back to N Ireland

That just makes it worse, you should know better. The only people I have ever seen wearing flak jackets in NI are police or military personnel. To insinuate that flak jackets are necessary for...

Re: Wanting to move back to N Ireland

Re: Advice for family wanting to move to Ontario

You possibly need to look outside of Ontario and think about Manitoba - Winnipeg is a trucking hub due to it being the geographic centre of Canada and so close to the US border. Moving on the...

Re: Colon Cancer Screening - DIY test

As one who has to suffer the indignity of a colonoscopy annually, I can def say the scope itself is the best bit. The prep, however, is a different matter entirely :thumbdown:

Re: I'm a Brit, get me out of here!

I ended practising my profession when my son was born ... after 10 years of working in Canada, I was still only earning approx 65% of what I was earning when I left the UK in 2005.

Thanks Novo. I don't know how you lasted so many years in Canada, esp coming from the NE! I worked in Hexham many moons ago, such a lovely place.

Re: I'm a Brit, get me out of here!
