Aye BB, a bit peace and an easy life is what we should all strive for.

A Chinese curse - " May you live in interesting times"

All the best for when you head back matey and have a proper Guinness for me.

Attention-seeking Drama Queen :p

Bernie, breaking away from my usual PMs, you know I wish you lots of luck and that you find peace and happiness, but take note of this quote I wheel out now and then, and in fact wheeled out just recently for another BE-er. ;)

There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.
Nelson Mandela

Take it easy, love, and anticipate a period of re-adjustment.

Yeah, those expats curry nights can get a bit messy!
I have had the pleasure of meeting BB a few times and can say that he is a sound, decent guy.
Have a safe journey home and I hope you find the peace you are looking for. Respect.
