That's all I would say.

We don't really know all his motives, or his opinions fully. He's not the only one, we all have a story to tell or hide or just choose not to mention.

Thought it was because his son is out here...? :confused:

Think you summed up pretty well there. (Usual caveats about not really knowing the bloke/only read what he's said on here etc etc) - but I can't recall him saying a single positive thing about this country. Family here or not, you've got to wonder if it's that grim a place ... why not just come for extended visits and enjoy the myriad supposed benefits of cashed-up UK living ...

Because he only pipes up to lay the boot in ... and then drops off the radar for a week. Anyway - it begs the question - what have you chosen not to mention Badge? :D

Not much. Thousands of posts says it all.:p er I've said it all.

I know he had a son here, thats about it.

Look I think we're all as bad as each other at times.I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to the people coming over as they are making a move - its the whole point. They'll soon work it out.
