I'm sure it's a passing phase. Please.

I know Mini Beast will be fine once we move and feel sure his reluctance is down to venturing into the unknown. He also spends time looking at the mls site choosing us a home - usually one with a pool!

Re: What do the children think?
We had a Canadian perspective that raised her eyebrows (carefully shaped ones of course she is 17), when I asked her friend who had moved from NS to NB what she liked about Fredericton. She said lots of people, things to do, shops and how close everything was, she meant they didnt need to drive for 45 mins to get to the shops. She moved from a rural town of 2,000 whereas Gemma moved from Woking with a population of 75,000......

Hi Ann M
II hope that you don't feel too down about your daughter as children can't possibly understand that for a lot of people the main reason that they move here is to give their children a better life and future.
By the way, thanks for your good wishes when I posted a question on what to wear for my first interview. I applied for four jobs here and got offered three of them. I took the first one and am loving it. Thanks you again for your wishes of good luck. I was having a moment of my own that day

Bless you - thanks for that. Daughter has been OK again mostly this week, but I am going to see her teacher on Friday too (part of the problem appears to be boredom at school and lack of stimulation). But she has a great bunch of friends - so she'll get through this phase fine, I am sure.

Well done you - dead chuffed, I am sure....Good to hear that your daughter is doing better. Has she taken up any hobbies or sports outside of school? We found this to be a great distraction for both of our two. Remember you're not far from the mountains so you could always tempt her with skiing
As for job offers, hardly clever as they are desperate for good people in both Banff and Canmore. The problem here is that there is a huge transient population. Lots of youngsters here for the winter season and then they are off to somewhere else. i guess that I just got lucky.
Anyway, roll on the skiing season. I think that someone forgot to order the snow
