Re: Who's Looking to move to NS?

Hi there,

We got back from our recce on Sunday. Exhausted after all the driving I did (almost 1000 miles in a week!) but at least we got to see a lot of NS.

We had never been to NS before but...

Re: NS Recce only 8 days away

Hopefully they just release the schedule at a later date. If I remember rightly this years flights weren't put up on the website until January. :fingerscrossed:

Hey Hobbitess,

I don't think Globespan have released a schedule for Halifax for next year. I get the feeling that they might be pulling out of the route but you never know. Best thing to do is...

Re: NS Recce only 8 days away

Thanks Arty,

Sounds like NS really has made an impression on you. I hope we come away with a similar feeling and, going by all the comments, research, etc I'm sure we will.

Re: NS Recce only 8 days away

I haven't really decided to be honest. We don't have any kids so we don't really have to worry about schools, etc. I think i'd quite like something off the beaten track but equally I'd like to be...

Re: NS Recce only 8 days away

Thanks Emmajay! You definitely mirror my own sentiments. I would much rather go, not like it and have to come back to the UK than stay here and always wonder "what if". I think that would be the...

Re: Very useful book for would-be emigrants

Point taken but I can't imagine it would be very easy to scroll through a screen and use a mouse when you're lying on your back! In saying that, I've never tried it so I may need to challenge my...

Re: NS Recce only 8 days away

Yeah, i think i'm probably over thinking things. It is only our first trip so there's probably a good 2 or 3 trips required after this before we will really be in a position to make an informed...

I think that's exactly it although the strange thing is I know if I don't like it then I'll just look elsewhere. Probably a bit of fear that we've done all this work and research and it could end up...
