Well I dunno ... I give the homesick guy a call to invite him round for an evening of HD TV World cup on a BIG telly ... and a dish of chilli to help things along, and he's been and gone and gone out!!!

Hey Butch, if you read this tonight.... there will be an England game at 6.30 am tomorrow that Al is getting up to watch ... I might even be persuaded to cook pancakes for brekkie, if you don't mind sitting among the boxes cos we're mostly packed up!

Hi Mo,

I dont think Mrs Cassidy would have been too impressed if I hadnt gone out. She needed collecting from th'airport!!! Then we had to go check th'ouse int north west. Then seeinus wiwus s'clorse we wint t crowfoot fer us tae. jus gut bak at 11 t'nite.

I may just take Al up on his offer for HD TV. Depends if I wake in time

lol....ok.... well any time!

I didnt wake in time
missed the start

We've been here nearly a year now and the only time I became "homesick" was when I returned to England for a wedding. Before clearing custom at Gatwick I was desperate to turn round and come home...

Hub could have jumped back on the plane back to Mcr airport the moment we got here and was in turmoil for the first few weeks,

I was totally focused and positive and have "mainly" remained so. The odd short lived bout of homesickness in the first 9 months or so, usually when I feel ill or the weather goes a bit crappy, but it soon passes.

Now 13 months on, we BOTH feel pretty settled and couldn't give this up in a hurry.

Yes, the telly here is BAD, but we didn't come here to slouch in front of the box....................not an issue with us really.!

Hi there R2D2,

Glad to see your back on track!!!!! How did the visit go???

Hey Linda. Still going on. My folks have another week with us yet and we have been busy doing all the serious tourist stuff. Almost exhausted the best things Edm has to offer now..................and I have to say they have been mighty impressed.

Loved the river valley ! We've been very proud of where we now call home !
Its nice to show it all off.

Hope you and the gang are well ?

home sickness quite often happens around christmas time or other times when it us usual to be with your family. it does come in waves and goes away again. Make sure that you get lots of visitors and talk to your UK friends and family regularly. I have lived in many parts of the world, some good some bad and it has hit me on occassions wherever I have been, so enjoy the fact that you are feeling positive and happy!!!!!!!!! good luck
