Re: What have you learnt?
Making a decision is the easy part. Having to live with the consequences of the decision is much harder.

Re: What have you learnt?
That marrying the boy next door may have been easier. (I'll keep him though as he's quite lovely).
I HATE paper work.
I LOVE my family and friends.
There is more to life than a pretty place.
That what is a good idea one day can change the next.
That life is good so long as those I love are happy and well.
There is no perfect place, there is no perfect time.....
Life is good.

Re: What have you learnt?
I have learned that after 3 attempts at Oz life...it's the UK we call home!!
I have learned that no matter how many friends you make, it's no substitute for family!!
I have learned that when my Daughter cried at leaving her Grandma when she was 4, she will never "just get over it"!!
I have learned that 3 attempts in Oz will zero your bank account
I have learned that time goes pretty slow when you are living in limbo land!
I have also learned that going to Ikea is a bad idea when you know you can't buy anything as we are selling everything to go back!! (went with a friend)

Re: What have you learnt?
Family and Friends are everything.
I would prefer to be irritated or annoyed by my family than not have them around at all. I left over 6 years ago. My son was 8 and my daughter 6 they have grown up without grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins...They can never get that time back.
