I want to dedicate this thread to Rooksie who I think needs cheering up.

The TRA gets us all down - in fact I am rocking back and forth as we speak and am threatening incontinence if it gets any worse.

But Rooksie has had a tough time lately.

Rooksie, this one is for you, please please keep your spirits up.

It will happen for you and at the right time, you will see.

In the mean time, you have my email and I will call you for regular updates of stupidity from my end of the world.

Dont let the bastards grind you down as they say.

Chin up Rooksie.

Out of karma but sending better stuff in the way of good thoughts!

Rooksie

thanks mate - have to confess to losing some faith but i imagine im not alone!!!!!

If the Newton Man (as he will be known) shoots you down in flames then I will blacken his eyes with my ample breasts. He will die in a mountain of mammary smotheration.

I see the hand surgeon tomorrow. Oh the benefits of working in a hospital.

I have damaged the tendon. I told them i dont care what ive done, or what they need to do, as long as I still go to Thailand and I can still type to do my 'Tales from Thailand' from the hotel.

They can operate after if they need to, but I do need my fingers to type.

I can type fairly ok now, just takes me longer and I cant use too much pressure.

So remember, death by titties if you upset Rooksie.

PP - how did you manage to sit on your hand??
Rooksie - does this mean you`ve actually posted the TRA at last??
Karma being sent to you both

Joanne

Would anyone dare upset Rooksie now?!!!!!!!!! :scared:

Perthforme

Joanne

Im sure my hubby would be up for it, if you want to practise!

I'll take those odds. I know we all come on forums like this looking most of all for some moral support, if the truth be known, but you've got to be realistic about these things.

Do we all apply to live permanently in another country, with all the burdens for their nation that entails, without expecting it to be a lengthy, involved process, and one which possibly ends in a rejection ?

Good luck to everyone who's going through the process at the moment, but if people whinge about every step of the process that everyone has to go through, is it really constructive ?

I've got to have a skills assessment, I've got to apply for a visa, I've got to sell my house, I've got to sell my hatchback. Maybe if you cant face up to these issues, you shouldn't apply ? Or spare the forums and call Clare Rayner (sp).

Sorry if I sound a bit harsh, but I'd rather save my sympathy for people who've got exceptional issues to deal with.
