The plane out!!!
Only kidding, I think when I get back to Blighty I will certainly start to think of those things I will miss.
It is hard at the moment as looking forward to getting back to the UK! I'm sure this excitement will wane!!!
Good luck to those arriving.

I live in Adelaide Daz...you obviously never lived there!!
Now..why dont you piss off over to the other side with the rest of the whingers and jack off on misery!!
Appologies to everyone on the board for my outburst, but i have come to the conclusion that being kind, polite and helful on this forum is a waste of time and effort, so i have altered my persona........ sorry.... all those with delicate dispositions be warned

I think WBB got a bit of a shock when the bitten bit!
Sometimes being polite doesn't work. Asking people nicely not to do something which annoys or upsets you, and getting ignored, and having them continue to do the same things, just because it amuses them to piss you off, gets old, very quickly. So - give as good as you get.
Anyway, a little while back there was quite a bit of whinging about how staid and boring the forum had got, and how we could use some controversy.
