I'm sure everybody goes through the feeling you went through, that's why when you get here, you get sick so quickly, your body adjusting to be back to normal.
So welcome back, hope all goes well with the house sell again.

I will do the bus if you will lolol. Spiders yes there is a problem with them too. Ha ha such is life, just remember never say never, if we don't like it there we can return but lets hope that this will never happen especially with all the trouble you had to get the visa in the first place.

Heres also hoping you hear from the EA today as well.

Good luck and best wishes to all but expecially you and your family Beth.

Kind regards

I had a colleague in the UK who was terrified of flying.

Her doctor always prescribed something for her to take after check-in.

Maybe a visit to your GP would sort this out.

Good Luck!

I've got 2 girls now i really feel sorry for you!

Mine are 12 and 15 (soon to be 16), when they're not arguing they're sleeping..........

Half sedated, is that a bad thing?
