getting excited but feeling guilty
really excited now as the house has only been on the market 3 weeks and have had an offer so we know its saleable more viewers are coming through the door as well which is all good news
have had the packers round to estimate and pss are the cheapest by a long shot spoke to allied pickfords who have agreed that they need to examine their prices good news as well
all good news as work seems to be getting on the right lines with reduced hours and nice shifts, feel like i am going to post a positive response for once
however here it comes went round to my brothers for lunch last week (there is only me and my brother) who told me he is being posted to singapore for 5 years this year!!!!!, dad is away on his winter siesta in portugal at the moment and not due back until march wow losing both his kids is going to be the real guilt trip now as he is 75
does anybody else have this with both their kids moving away at the same time
arlene (still feeling very positive at the moment, due to the fact that i have reinvested in another 6 pound bottle of wine located very near to the computor:scared: :scared: )

Re: getting excited but feeling guilty
drink that wine before you spill any And if you can not handle your booze properly, I better have it 
on the family thing my parent will be late 60s/mid 70s when we go - not that we have told them yet. However we do plan to set enough money aside (as they have not got that much) to enable them to fly out and see us.
However guilty I will feel, I know that the move is what I really want, that I can't put my life on hold and wait for them to pop their clogs, and know that they would not want that either and want for us (me and Mr W) to be happy.
if you and you brother have the money - how about a flight via Singapore on the way to Oz?

Leaving family at in the UK is always hard & I for one am not looking forward to it - but try to keep in your mind why you are doing all this.
Why won't your dad come put to see you? Hopefully when you have gone he will have a change of heart & do the trip via Singapore - he could even get you brother to taga along & then the wine would definatley flow - with a reunion party - But make sure that you have a tiled floor!!!! No carpets please
