More Brits For Canada!
Hi Everyone,
We have been lurking around the forum for a few weeks now and decided it was time to say hi, so hi :) We have lived in a few places over the years and our itchy feet have us ready for a move again lol Right now we are back 'home' in Glasgow, Scotland but real fed up and wanting to escape! We are a mid 30's couple with one teenage daughter and 2 cats, so far Alberta looks like a good possibility for our new home, although that choice has chanced a few times already and back again! We are thinking entry via a Temp Work Permit would be our quickest route, and hope to be in a position to move early next year? Well hopefully anyway!:unsure: We have enjoyed the forum so far and the Wiki has been great reading! We hope to get involved and make a few friends along the way as we make our journey to Canada :) Take care everyone Al and Shelby |

Hi Al and Shelby, be careful of Coffeepot, she's a bit loopy :blink: she thinks I'm her mother for some reason and I've never even met her :rofl: That's what lurking on BE will do for you so lurk no longer and join right in. Good luck in wherever you land up. We are in Sasktachewan, it's cold at the moment, has no mountains (we came from Wales :rofl:) and the people are very friendly. :thumbsup:

Think we all must be loopy hanging around here :rofl: Thanks for the welcome and the good luck, probably going to need it :blink: Thinking of Alberta, not just as cold as Sasktachewan (we think!) and a few mountains too just like home, although we hope it' s a heck of a lot better than Scotland lol |
