Default 1000 Going Cold Turkey

Well its finally happened this is the 1000th post, some will say 1000 too many.

Anyway I am going cold turkey and not posting anymore. Will leave Donna to carry on posting, after all she hogs the damn computer.

Its been emotional.

The big 1000 posts and now you choose to retire!

Hope you enjoy your break from the forum and we await your return, if you decide to return.

Be careful or you might get accused of padding your posts. Anyway keep going.

My sentiments exactly Dotty, he's been saying this for a while. While I'm tping this he's saying, "are you posting 1001 why don't you use your own one.......bless


Then he said "How do they know I have retired if you keep posting" double bless

Now hes suggesting I start as Mrs. Karawara ( not my style) he'll probably stay away a while because hes just that type of guy.

Default Cold Turkey

Hello everyone,

This is me (the other half of karawara88) in my new guise as I just couldn't cope with his puppy dog eyes looking over at me everytime he heard a click on the keyboard whilst he's thinking is that 1002. 1003

I don't know if he will keep with the Cold Turkey or whether this is an elaborate plot to get me to have my own expat identity.

I guess i posted less than a dozen posts on his ID maybe i should go back and delete them just to get him back on.

We will have to see just how long it lasts.

I have only used his username for the last couple of weeks, Chris has always worked from home so he had regular access to the expat site but I would catch up on the gossip and leave him to his banter.

I posted once a while ago and he was most upset that someone might think the comments I had made would be from him and I had to go back and add my name to the bottom

Anyway no probs now I am free to do as I like, as I have no job it is a useful way to spend some time, but I reckon he will struggle with the cold turkey, or he'll be saying to me,, "post this or post that"
