Default Totally addicted.

Dont worry if you are having problems with logging on to expats to much, I have just sunk to new depths.

Husband left this morning knowing I had no work to do so he kindly left me with 2 dozen plants to put in and about 2000 weeds to pull out.

As soon as he left I rang the home services people who have sent a very nice OAP gentleman who is currently weeding the rather large garden while I sit in the airconditioning eating a packet of pretzels and waffling on expats.

Guilty, not a bit, its bloody hot out there, now wheres me iced tea.

I've started giving out my mobile phone number instead of the land line so that when I'am on the expats site I don't get interupted!!!!! Can't stop logging onto this site, it keeps me sane!

Keeps me sane too! Yesterday was not a good day PMT, rain all day, plus a good dose of homesickness, nothing like Expats with tea and timtams.
