Re: Forgotten but not gone :S
There I was sunning myself on Coolangatta beach and it suddenly struck me.....where's the Proof Reader ?
In the evening I went to a lovely Italian restuarant and as I was supping a bottle of Merlot I thought....bet she wished she was here now.

Arrived in UK two weeks ago today. Spent the first few days with my brother in Swindon then motored north-east to MrPR's family in Lincs. It's bloody freezing here and has rained most days - so much for spring turning to summer. Cooped up here in a tiny single bedroom (yes, two of us) with narry enough room to swing a cat. Desperately looking for a job - any job - to get us an income and into our own place. Another week and I'll have to try my hand at factory work, but trying hard to avoid it if possible (I've never done it before - never been so low and so desperate!) Anyway, that's it in a nutshell from me.
I'd logged on with great anticipation and looking forward to catching up with those who'd missed me, only to find ... that NO-ONE did. Not a PM, not an email, not a mention anywhere, nothing!
Oh well, guess it could be a while 'til I can access a connection again, don't s'pose I'll be missed ...
* Sniff *
Typically, when I tried to post this just now, the connection had dropped out. Just my luck at the moment! Grrrrr.
Blimey Chris, I was wondering where you'd got to!
Welcome back to England's green and pleasant land.

Sorry, Pen ... but I'm not taking the p*ss. I happen to think it's a brilliant word to replace another one!
Guess I'll just have to stick to "freezin' me firkin' t!ts orft" then?!

Re: Forgotten but not gone :S
Me and Da Boss was suppin beer on the Esplanade at 9pm this evenin.
Had me shorts and sawn-off teeshirt on cos it was still so warm.
An ice cold brew goes down a treat after yet another hot day in Cairns.
Anyway I says to Da Boss "just think of all the Aussies who have gone to the UK.......must be bloody nuts"
