Hee hee, well, she went thru the process too!

The mood swings, the desperation of ever hearing, the stalking of the postman (actually - she was quite good at that bit!)...

It's really great here - we are loving the city. OH loving the job too!
Turns out it has actually been a promotion too!
Once we have our stuff (arriving in Canada 8th Nov, not sure how long after for delivery) we will be quite settled and I can then find something to keep me out of mischief - oh, and earn some $$$!

Oh boy did they ever. My two were not impressed with 2 weeks cattery in London, then that flight - one of them is still sulking when ever I go and visit them in the Cattery here. Still, we move into our place in just over a week so they can come "home".
We'll have nothing much, so we'll make a plan, but you know how that is right?

Was 17 when I first thought about moving to Canada. Then got into college, hitchhiked, began working... Then began to think about Canada again when I was... 27! Then got married, got a new job, new interests and put this idea into the back of my mind. Then, started to think about Canada again in 2004, after visiting Toronto, when I was... 37!! Now I'm 40, the wife is 43 and our baby boy is 1 and change. We're still here, but we intend to begin the paperwork up to the end of 2008. Hope to be there before I turn 47!!! (when the missus will be 50!!!! )

I suppose it's a mid-life, don't do it now then never will, kind've thing, when people in that age group emigrate, also they're probably secure enough financially/relationship/career to make the big move. as was the case with us.

So just wondered what ages people are? (i'm also just nosey)
