Now theres a good reason to stay if I ever heard one :) I was on the same plan a number of years ago - somehow I never manage to get any closer :eek:

Good luck

The end is close, passport destruction will occur within three years, and i'll never venture further from my back door, than i can reach within a 5 minute brisk walk.

It really makes me smile when i read the postings of people disillusioned with life at home, there really is no better place that i've found, and i'm dying to get back.

My passport wont distruct but I have never ventured past my back gate either. I am not disillusioned with life back home, in fact I love it. I cannot wait to get back though I have to wait a few years ... Which for now I dont mind.

Heart :)
