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!!!!

In my experience, of expats that i've met, they have all been mid to late 30's early 40's when they emigrated. We fall into that catagory, oh was 37 when we applied and 40 when we moved, i was 35 and 38 respectively.
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)
