OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK-Silly Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
So here it is - go for it, if you dare!
This is supposedly for the people who got banished from: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK to: US Healthcare discussion moved from Over 50's & 60's thread but we wanted to talk about other rubbish too. Saaaaaaave me from this time wasting multi-thread craziness and come here to talk about absolutely anything. |

OK maybe I'm mad, but we just get jumped from
Moving Back to Rovers Return? Maybe I'm tired |
Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK-Silly Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
I asked Pollyana to move us back where people can find us in the Moving Back main area rather than Rovers Return. Have no idea why we were jumped to where people would have a difficult time finding us.

We try to keep the main forums for serious questions and info, and the chatty forums for ....errr....chat. That way new people who join with with serious questions can find the answers easily, while all of us who are more used to forum life can start chatty and gossipy threads without getting in the way :) If you're not happy with the thread where it is, I suggest you report it and then all the Supermods and Sue will have a look and someone may move it for you. Personally, I'm sorry but I think its in the right place :o |

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK-Silly Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
OK, now that I have found 'us' again, Good Morning from Frome, Somerset. It is a sunny morning, following a chilly night as I can see by the state of the condensation on the inside of my windows. Now - that could be blamed on the hot air spoken within the confines of my 4 walls, but I have been good recently, and not acted the crazy person talking to herself. So I blame it on the outside being colder than the inside of this studio. Anyone wishing to tell me otherwise can start their own thread on 'Moving to ____ creates crazy behaviour'. Oh, and joy of joys - the garbage and recycling got picked up on my street today, including from my elderly neighbour's apartment, so I am off the hook for helping her sort out the mess in her own place (see previous posting on a previous thread, only I don't remember which one I posted that on. Nor do I care at this moment).
Thanks to the person who posted the Sarah Palin video - I have sent the link far and wide, including to the family I have in the USA who voted Republican in the last election. And I will post it on my Facebook page - it is, like the MasterCard ad in the US says 'priceless'. |
Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK-Silly Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
Here you all are! You keep moving but you can't get away from me :lol:
So since this is a chit-chat thread, I have a couple of questions for you all ... 1) What is the thing you're most looking forward to about being back in the UK? 2) What scares you the most about making the move? |
Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK-Silly Chit-Chat & Daily Catch-Up Thread
Just saying Hi !

The thing I'm most looking forward to is having all our oldest friends over for a house-warming party. The things I'm most scared of are a) that I'll miss the sun and b) that my husband will hate it and wish we'd never moved. Since I'm driving this move, that would make me feel very guilty. |
