i came, i saw, i didnt like, i left ... and now i am going back
 
A while ago i posted a thread on here saying that i had went to Australia, spent (admitedley) a very short time there, didnt like what i saw, and left. i thought being a member of this forum, i would at least get some understanding, i didnt. All i got was told that the thread was "comedy gold" and the personal attacks on me went on FAR too long before the moderators closed the thread. The upshot of it was, that i stayed away from here for a long time, as i was genuinely very upset at alot of the personal comments made, and quite frankly was really annoyed at how some of the more "popular" members on here got away with saying what they did.

Anyway, i am not here to moan. I am here to say i am going back, and this time, i am going back with my eyes open. I start a job with IBM as soon as i get there, and my other half has the house and car all arranged, with the funds i left her. This time i really am looking forward to going, and just to getting my head down and getting on with. And after having talked to her for hours on the phone everday (you dont wanna see my phone bill) everything is good our world, and its time to take the next step, i am scared, but we can face our fears together.

whay am i posting this you might add? well basically, those who took the michael out of me, can go blow it our thier /\ss, and you know who you are.

flying out with Emirates on Saturday from Heathrow .... again !

see you on the other side!

Good for you! I'm really pleased to hear that you're giving it another go. It's not easy but hope it works out this time - you're giving it your best shot and you can't do anymore than that.

Best of luck,

Nicky

I take my hat off to you :
1). For returning to Aus and giving it another go
2). For returning to this site and letting us all know what is going on with your
life after being upset by past comments.
I wish you all the best and good luck for the future.

They're all in bed. It's only 5am here:D

All the best in your new life in Aus. Sometimes it takes a move back to appreciate things here in Aus and it can't have been easy for you.

Good luck and much happiness on your return;)

Good luck and hope it's everything you want this time round. I know of several people who have gone back a second time and have loved it. (I'm just plucking up the courage to go for it again!! :) )

Where will you be based?
