Re: Puttin Christmas Decs up!

This will be our third Christmas here, and I think I have learnt that instead of trying to make it the same as the UK, we enjoy the benefits of Christmas here. It will never be the same, but I enjoy...

Re: Shout it from the rooftops...

Thanks everyone, just feel that it's nice to share the highs as well as the lows, and having my daughter here is the icing on the cake at the mo.

Re: How do you help your kids (son is 14) with the grief of moving to Australia?

I think that's the lesson I've learnt most over the past year, we've had our highs and lows, and when my daughter returned to the UK I thought my heart would break, I cried buckets, but I've learnt...

Re: Last postal date..........

Just spent today doing my UK Christmas shopping with my sister in law, boy it's a chore, but I always feel good when it's done!
