Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK - Part II
I tried hidemyip, but I found it slowed down my mac terribly, so I had to get rid of it.
I think windsong has success with it though.
I'm currently using uknova.com to download shows, it was a little confusing to begin with - but I finally figured it out - I'm addicted to Come Dine with Me and the new Masterchef

Finding a UK proxy for the Mac was pretty tough so I went with the one I found, Hide My IP. Always open to others, though.

Don't laugh but when I first saw Frome in the postings, I checked online how to pronounce it and there it was... a little sound clip that said Frome. Sounded more like Frume to me. What about you who are living there/have lived there?

Yes I am here safe and sound thank you, flight was not the best, way TOOOO long but no matter I am home.
Have had 2 eccles cakes, a Jacobs club biscuit and a packet of Quavers already.
Am OVERtired but cannot sleep, a pretty rough time in Australia saying goodbye but it is done now.
Just waiting for my mum and some others to come around. Will check in soon BTW it is grey and raining and cold but still that is how home is for some of us.

Welcome home Bea! You did it gurl! Now to get back into your body. I think I know how you feel and being a zombi. Thanks for being prompt with a report and I'm sure you will tell us more later.

blackcatsfan, I love "Come Dine With Me." The narrator just makes me laugh out loud sometimes. Gotta love that cruel British sense of humor!

Glad to hear you got back safely. Don't worry about the weather, spring is just around the corner (it's been sunny and dry all weekend in Glasgow, for instance, and the snowdrops and crocuses are coming up, daffodils will be next).

Just checking in from Canada where I have been busy finalising shipping and arranging for transport for our cat to the UK. Will be heading home to Devon a week Tuesday and hopefully will be going directly to the new house in Brixham. Can't wait to get settled again.
