Its so great to be on english soil. As soon as i landed at heathrow i felt great & knew my decision was right. It was like id never been away!! LOL

Its was really a sad time saying goodbye but ive made the right choice & i really hope Si will follow. I know for sure i wont go back there!

It was a hell of a long flight. Quantas ok but not great with kids!! Thankfully megy slept a lot & was ok.

Managed to change my flight from heathrow to newcastle to an earlier one!. Unfortunately I didnt get my suitcase as its gone on the fight i originally booked so should get it back tonight!! Nothing is ever simple for me!

Anyway, i will cacth up with you all again soon once im a bit more sorted. Only popped on as had some emails to do!

Take care all & good luck to ll those flying this week i.e Stu!! Let us know how you get on when your back

Bye for now xx

Well i am so glad you made the right decision.
What a great relief it must be to be back home.
I am very jealous of you. It is what i think about on a daily possibly hourly basis , being back in uk would be my dream, my husband says to wait till next year but i don't know if i can and what difference it will make.
Anyway Good luck with the money thing, and hope you settle down quickly.
Well done, have a great life all the best Mandi XXX:thumbsup:

It really is so great to be home. walking around the airport yesterday 7 seeng all the familiar shops & newspapers! It was great:D

Bit worried now about money as been told be a few people that getting benefits could take up to 6 weeks which is no good for me as i only have £50!!:(

Im going to see them today so i hope something can be done!

To mike & Jo & stu, have a safe fllight home & let us know how you are!

you should get emergency benefits ,esp as you have a child.tell them that your family arent able to put you up for long and you need some money

if that fails.....argos sell cheap tents;)

im sure you'll be fine !!

In hindsight, I realise I was wrong and accept that each person has their own situation that they must work around to do what is best for themselves and their family.

I am sorry for any offence caused and promise never to judge anyone in this fashion again.

If I do, then you have my full permission to tie me up with a Liverpool football flag and beat me with an Emu feather whilst singing football songs like 'Vindaloo'.

John


Very gracious of you.:thumbup:
