Thanks to all!

I have calmed down a bit now. :p

Because we were told of the delays with visa processing, we werent realistically expecting it for another month or so. They must have read my ranting thread :rofl::rofl:

We are in a bit of a spin now, trying to get some sort of order in how to do things at just the right time.

Probably looking at 4 - 5 weeks before we leave.

And that will be just about the right time for the bluebells to be in bloom :thumbsup:

Well good luck with the move back and I hope all goes as planned with the family etc which I`m sure it will.

You are certainly one of the most memorable posters on any of these forums:) and after 3.835 threads will be missed,

Congratulations!

I was just looking out of my window this morning thinking how pretty it looks - the grass is covered in yellow and purple crocuses and snowdrops, and the sun was shining - lovely. It's bloody cold though!

Where in the UK will you be moving to?

Thanks again everyone.


Awww Chipbarm, you just reminded my of my dad. When i was growing up, he was a keen gardener and we always had a carpet of gorgeous crocuses popping up in the lawn under the apple trees :wub:
There was also the evocotive smell of Lily of the Valley under the lunge window. God i love that smell. Cant remember when they bloom though.
