Re: Waah, I don't wanna go
OK, good stuff, thanks for the replies, even the rude ones! Skyping is good and the internet's a lot more advanced than when we were last there, although I don't want to hide in an imginary world.
Thinking about it, I guess the thing is to make friends, be involved, keep in touch and enjoy the beer and wine. Just like anywhere else really.
Cheers.

I think I saw a post where you said your daughter expected you to go without question ... well if that is the case, she sounds like she needs a good talking to!

Re: Waah, I don't wanna go
So you are going then? I still think it is a massive mistake, it didn't make you happy before, you don't want to go and so chances are you will be unhappy again.

Hee Hee... My daughter loves Brisbane, she's welcome to it. I'm going home in my dotage... Plane fares are tuppence happeny from Heathrow end, come for a bit of extended sunshine and go home when you feel like a decent pint and you're missing the BBC. Best of both worlds!

You're welcome for lasagne any time. Actually, I'm making musroom risotto tonight, so you're welcome for that if you like.

However I do remember that our Bernieboy won't go near them 
My nephew is the same, used to run screaming from the room if he found a mushroom on his plate, and made up stories as a kid where Hedgehogs ruled the world after defeating armies of invading mushrooms

Re: Waah, I don't wanna go
But out for dinner with my then fella and the starter was something like...medley of garlic infused wild mushrooms on home-made bruschetta. It sounded utterly devine so I thought I would try it. WOW....absolutely love 'em now. We have mushrooms with most things. And I have vastly expanded my vegetable repertoire

Something similar was my first foray into the world of vegetables. Up until my late twenties, I wouldn't eat any at all.
