Hey back.....
I now live in one of Perth's northern suburbs called Iluka, the names don't ring a bell with me. Yes I too have spent many a night out in Torquay...I actually used to work at night at Ritzy's the niteclub and 5th Avenue before that, and during the daytime worked for Torex Hire....those names ring a bell.

Hi again
I know Peter, Simmo, my daughter is in one of his daughters classes at school, i see his wife Yvonne every day. And I also know Mark Lidstone, Deb although don't see so much of him now he has "settled" down.
My shop used to be Strides in Island Street and I used to be called Yeoman that's who you would know me as if anythong, Yeoman plumbers used to be my in laws. What about you Deb whats your surname?
The weather is still good here at mo but true to form is about to rain for bank holiday weekend. Then they can't say when we are going to get sun back.
Ican understand you miss your mates but I'm sure you'll make new ones soon, you'll never forget the old ones, you just move on. I moved to Devon from Luton and had a very large group of friends there, it took me a couple of years to get used to living in Devon, believe it or not I really missed Luton, I don't miss it at all now. I remained friends with a few from there and we still keep in contact but have lots of new friends here. Yes, I'll miss them, I don't doubt that, but not as much as I would regret not giving this a damn good go as we have thought about this for years.
Speak soon
