Won't be like that for too long though will it. sold out most of the farming, coal and car technologies and what with new developments...UK will morph into Milton Keynes and become one blob of concrete...ready to implode on itself.

I haven't made any firm arrangements for going home as yet, but I'm hellbent on leaving the US, and I want to travel in January/February of next year. I'm looking forward to the smell of winter. It's been boiling hot every Xmas I've spent in Florida, and I hate not seeing snow or at least frost on Crimbo morning. The atmosphere is just not the same, either, and I can't quite put my finger on why. Think I just mostly miss sitting in bed/on the sofa all snug and stuffing my face with Quality Street and watching a cheesy Christmas movie when it's cold outside.

Just an afterthought. Are you that guy who wears the sandwich board telling us the end of the world is nigh?

It's all down to the mighty pound my dear...70 million people all living on the an area the size of a napkin, something has to give, even your parks.

We were in the UK in Feb. We had to drive down to London and the entire way I had my feet on the bashboard with a huge grin on my face taking in all the sights. Did I mention this was on the M1..lol.. That is when my husband said, it really hit him how much I missed home.

I can't believe your back already.. I revoke the invite for the girlie night out this just isn't on...lol... I know your situation wasn't ideal but your still a lucky duck. Go on tell me you have already had your packet of fish and chips or a good curry??? lol. Does your daughter seem to be happy being back home? I bet she slept for quite sometime on the flight. I thought a 7 hour flight was a nightmare. I have Mediced for Abby, when we leave. Although she is good she sleeps quite well as its a night flight. My problem is keeping the kids from thinking they are on holiday so they can go a bit mad.

if you hate it that much,why not just forget it and let us all get on with enjoying it instead ??

Didnt hve fish n chips or curry but i did have a damn good chinese!!!

megy didnt sleep for the 1st leg of the journey to singapore even though i gave her phuerneym (cant spell it again!). She did manage 6 hours to london though!! It wasnt easy but worth it when i got back!! She seems fine iwth it all though her sleep is a bit all over the shop right now but thats to be expected!

im looking forward to going home and drinking myself into a stupor in a pub without the check being given to me after each drink and someone telling me that i've had enough and im cut off (after 4 beers of bud). also looking forward to not having to drive 10 miles from the pub but going on a (walking) pub crawl around my local town. the USA is great but socially (especially in the south) it's sheet. apart from miami, but thats practically a different country!

I miss absolutely all of the above and will really look forward to my girls actually learning something academic in school that does not involve swinging from monkey bars but involves homework and good old fashioned maths and english. Oh and i cant wait to have the lovely rustle of a crisp pound note or many hopefully in my pocket.


oh and bold soap powder, think i'll wrap myself in a nice soft towel and just take in the aroma, omg i'm going stir crazy

I'm going to start going into the Canada forum and posting things like: Why do you want to live in Canada? It's cold. And it's full of miserable Canadians. And their tele is crap. And it sucks. And you're soooo stooopid for living there. I can do this, as I don't live in Canada and have no intention of moving there.

Only I won't, 'cause that would be bloody stupid. Lucky no-one from the Canada forum does that here.

A long walk in dead of winter through leafless woodlands, under a comforting grey sky, frost on the hard ground.
