Wish you lots of luck on your return to the UK & even if you don't post as often please come back and tell us (honestly) how you're doing & whether you make the right move etc.
Is your job up for grabs????

As I live 15 mins up the Rd from Kinver, Think I'll pop up Sunday night and tie some posters to the lamposts.
Any views on what should be written on them??
Ooops might have started something

WELCOME BACK
pb has been totally loyal to the uk in pretty much all he has written
therefore we should be glad to have him as the balance between those that slate the UK and those that praise it is woefully out of balance..
although i do enjoy giving 'knockers' my full attention..
i appear to be digressing...;-)
cheers

Look at the long list of things to do in Kinver...
http://www.kinveronline.co.uk/calendar/listevents.php
The place is full of 'Light Operatic Societies' and run by a parish council. The video shop closes at 7 O' clock !! Just the sort of place where PB can hide from the 'real world'.

I meant the UK as a whole as compared to Australia, Australia isnt all that bad, but I do at heart deeply believe people who go to Australia expecting a better life than England are making a big mistake, unless you are retired and looking for a place by the sea in the sun, it will suit you best, but if you wanted that, you would retire in spain as it's nearer to the UK as quite a few people do.
It offers nothing for people wishing to settle , earn a living and bring up a family, the people are shallow, the only decent friendly person I met was born a Kiwi and Asian doctor who saved my life in hospital after my stomach decided to stop working because of crohns disease, my australian girlfriend at the time rather than stand by me when i was ill decided to bugger off with another aussie.
good ridence to the country i say, leave it to the aussies to live there

just wanted to add my good wishes for a safe journey and good luck with your move to kinver - still a lovely village,but probably much busier than you remember.
will miss your dry wit and sarcastic tongue, but underneath it all i,m sure you are human like the rest of us!
bon voyage
