He hasn't been *too* bad - most of the posts have been fairly benign -maybe he was more homesick than he let on - he can be very positive about the Uk at times - infact - I expected to see a UK homesick Vash...perish the thought!

I spent 3 years living bang smack in the middle of Europe - sort of a case of been there - done that.
