How could they not want you :wub:

Sounds good though that they won the contract, fingers crossed for you hun :thumbsup:

Huh - they dont know what they are missing!! Actually planners can be v dry and humourless and I dont fit in to the stereoptypical role. Luckily the office I currently work at, we are all a bit "odd" - I really cant be arsed with the "administrtive management bollox"!

any way - yes hopefully the Van job will happen - then we have the delight of totally ruining our 13 yrd olds life!! :ohmy:

Thats what I keep saying!!

am just trying to ignore it at the moment -but its soo hard

If we had gone this summer it would have been soo much easier - but now letters are coming thru for school trips etc for next term - I have paid for some and said - look, if we leave you cant go - Well I am not going she says!! I am going to stay with my grand parents (ooh lucky them!)

At the mo the plan is that when we go - all of us will fly out - ie my mum and dad as well !! so it wont be such a wrench for her!

(itwill prob be me in floods of tears instead!

oh god got a lump in my throat now and am in the office!! :(

they would have her - but Oh is saying that we wouldnt go unless we all went - me being typically unmaternal would go without her - we are so similar the battles are constant!

I have said to Oh - we are not going to be held to ramsom by a 13 yr old!

Oh I dunno!!!! :curse:

Oh Bells, sorry about them not wanting you!

I don't know what your original time line was, but if you can get to Vancouver that would be awesome!!!

I'm less dizzy today - all that running around in circles is slowing down....

Off to London later to have supper and goodbye's with teh girls... yet having been up since before 7.30am, and having not eaten a bean, I'm starving so having something now. Prob won't be hungry later ??!!

hi Bandit - not really fussed about Calgary as didnt really want to go there - it was more for interview info really!

Van should come off - OH just waiting to hear all the info this week - its just the waiting and pontificating I cant stand - do I say yes to the girls weekend in Nov, buy a new sofa as current one is falling apart etc etc. . . .

Have fun tonight :)

I have been to both and I know it's contraversial making comparisons, but Calgary was definately NOT for me....

If you move to Van we could hook up :D

Can you go on teh girls w/end without committing to it just now? How fast would you go when the green light comes on? If you will take the sofa, then yes, if not, then no......! I'm going with 2 suitcases!!!! EEK!

I know -Calgary didnt really look like my kinda place - need the sea really!!

WEll IF he gets the yes for the job tomorrow and they agree decent salary and relocation expenses etc - - -we both have to give 2 months notice - thats it - so any time after that - but just depends on when they finally agree on monies etc.

i would rather go on Oh job so I can then sort the kids out - get them in school etc. . .then I can get a job

so could be there mid sept - but then could be Christmas !! aaaaagh!

I like the 2 suitcases idea :) dont think daughter would go for that tho!
