Hi fishfinger,

PS, dont worry about the racially thingy, I am not offended at all. I've been to a few Thai restaurants there myself. Loved the food there. Poor OH tho he wanted to try something else hehe.

Thanks everyone for the reply. My OH supposed to get a job offered by they seemed to disappear :mad: who knows maybe we stay here in the UK ;)

Bye for now, gotta go back to work :o

I'm Canadian and I lived in England for five years and I never really ever felt like I completely fit in either... but then, I didn't really tried to. ;) And, I'm not sure what you mean by 'the lifestyle' in the UK.

Are you looking for the negatives about living in Calgary? I could list what I see are the negatives but what I see are negatives, you might not.

You are both right. :p

Chorus:
RA RA RASPUTIN
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
RA RA RASPUTIN
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
