"Ice" dropped in for one post day before yesterday. :)

While we are on the topic of missing persons.

Has anyone seen or heard from Butch in the last seven days. His last post here was I think last Friday.

Not a word since.:confused:

Edit: I stand corrected I just did a search and Butch last posted on the 17th, however nothing since then and no response to PM's

Well that's a little odd, but maybe they just decided to go away for a few days. I hope he's ok....!

Hi Sue

I'm not on for a few days and look what happens........... poor old BC is not talking to anyone!

Hey BC, whats up mate? No one has heard from you in a while and we are all missing you. :confused:

I'm still trying to find my feet back in the UK. I start back at my old job on 30 October - they offered it straight back to me, I was really chuffed. Everyone was pleased to see me when I went in. (well the staff - not sure about the students yet!) :D

Still sorting out accommodation, flitting between my kids at the mo. I have bought a car - collecting it on Wednesday, but internet access is still a bit tenuous.

I will be back here as often as I can - the vodka and remy stocks must be building up ;)

Hey Stu - have the drinks set up for me. Thanks mate :beer:

Thanks. It was a huge move to make, but I have had a lot of support, not least from the wonderfully kind people on this forum. I'm a survivor and me and my dog are looking to the future now.

So if Antonio Banderas, George Clooney or Richard Gere read this - please feel free to PM me ;)

If not, I suppose I will have to make do with one of Ki's 'winter warmers'. :beer:

Thanks Stu-pot. How's things going? Are you still doing night shift next week? I am going to be making the most of my last freetime before I start work again. Shopping mostly. I have just realised all of the things that I am going to have to buy!!! Everything from teaspoons to washing machine etc. :scared:

Oh and not forgetting the alcohol - I may have to sell the dog ;)

Hi Sue
Things are ok - slowly getting sorted. I really hadn't realised just how much there is to do, buy and sort out.

Without internet access I am missing my friends in Canada - also the time difference makes it kinda strange.

I can't wait to get myself all sorted out and be back online here properly.

Hows things with you? Hows the dog and the family?

Going to take some time hon to get settled. You have to give yourself permission to take as much time as you need - its been a huge upheavel for you. We miss you too, but dont worry about the time too much. Im still around at strange hours.

Reilly is fine, spoiled as ever. Jim and the kids are doing well. Going to skate and play hockey as we speak. Jim coaches a couple of little guys teams one of which jj is on.

What will you do for xmas this year?

Oh God, Sue. I haven't really thought about Xmas. Its gonna be terrible. I hope that I'll be spending it with people that I love, as long as we can get the logistics sorted out.

I will have to go out and buy all new decorations etc - another expense! :scared:

But if things work out the way that I hope then it will be worth it.

Well I have to go for a while now. I may be back on later. Have a good day. Take care xx

God in need a virtually :beer: and a very large one at that. :)

Been on antibiotics for the past few weeks so haven't been able to drink, :eek: and to top it all I am now loaded with the cold. :(

So it's one very large white wine for me followed by another very large one and then another. :D

Hi Raine

I'm getting there, slowly. Thanks for asking. There's a horrible cold and flu bug going around here too - be just my luck to get it in time for my first day back at work :(

Anyway, so who's gonna be looking after the bar while Stu's out in Prague? I would offer but my internet access is a bit hit and miss and the moment (depending on where I am staying).

I hope you don't get it, I feel like crap and can't take anything for it until finished these antibiotics. :(

Stu's in Prague? Oh great timing Stu, I feel like crap and you take yourself of to Prague, go figure. :D

Oh well looks like I'll have to do the honours sick or not. :)

Just as well I'm not a man other wise I would be curled up in bed felling sorry for myself. :p :D

You'd better stick to waiting for Antonio. :D:D

Now there's a challenge........................

It would rather depend on how well stocked the bar is!! ;)

Actually it would depend on whether or not I can access the internet at that time.

At least being a 'cyber bar' looks don't have to be a consideration :D
