Hi Mrs Miggins,

I have been told about you by my cousin who is way up north in Alberta where it's cold and snows a lot, (she's scottish so used to that). We moved over to Lethbridge in November last year, for many the same reasons as everyone else. We were on our research trip this time a year ago and it all seems to have gone so fast. I am so glad you are staying in Lethbridge, i have thought about this for many months now, and staying is much better than the garbage over there, isn't that why we have all left??????????? It is definantely no bowl of roses this move, it has been very hard and frustrating.

My partner got a job before we came, he is a skilled worker class, the girls started school as soon as we arrived, but i only started work last week. I don't get on with myself and found the constant arguing between me and me a bit hard to bare. I must admit though, waking up to sunshine most days is good and worth the rest of it!!!!!!. As i am in Lethbridge and could use a bit of company maybe you would like to meet up, i work in Taber so it's a bit far to go to the pub, i only work p/t 9am - 2pm so let me know what you think. I hope you have a good holiday, take care and let me know what you would like to do.

Lorraine, when you say you don't know where to start, do you mean you don't know how to get in contact with Burton Bunch and Minihaha?

Being new to the forum I wasn't sure whether you knew how to search for members and without enough posts you can't send PMs. Hope you don't mind but I've sent PMs to Gaynor (Burton Bunch) and MiniHaHa and directed them to this post.

Hi Gill,

That must have been all those chaps on Highway 3 on Sunday in orange and the chap with the gun, makes sense now.

Well life story, it's ok you can be as nosey as you like, i am too!!!!!!

I was born in London, raised in the deep south-hense strange accent, got married at 21 to a rat scallion so moved to Nottingham to get away from him about 7 years ago. Met the great guy i am with now and he dragged me here kicking and screaming(not). Steve is an Autobody Tech for Dunlop Ford, the showroom is on Mayor McGrath but the collision center is on the North side.

The girls go to school at the LCI, fab school, and i have just got a job with a property management company in Taber. I have loads of housing experiance from the UK, i used to work with homeless people.

How about you????

Thanks so much and you are dead right we certainly do need to stick together. Bet you are looking forward to July, have you done the skilled worker bit or have you got your permanant residency?
