Novocastrian.

You asked me about my personal reasons.
I explained my personal reasons and then you mock me.

I wish no more discussions with you.
Good night.

Why after 58 years ?

Re: What is the positive in returning to UK

This has nothing to do with my love/hate of Ontario.
It has everything to do with a change in my life (the golden years so to speak) and making life "exciting" again.

Re: What is the positive in returning to UK

I like the comment about "warts and all".
No country is perfect and I expect issues.
But the "issues" will be different and I find that exciting.

Re: What is the positive in returning to UK

It was St. George's cross.

Why the urge ?
In a simple statement... a change is as good as a holiday.

I have been self-employed for 25 years and work 24/7/365.

Re: What is the positive in returning to UK

I would not say it is a pipe-dream, but at the same time I do not have solid plans. I am seriously considering the move and have the wife at about 75% agreement with the move.

Finance is my concern also.
I have been self-employed for about 25 years and am sure I would have a tough time now looking for employment at my age. That being said, if I could earn enough for food...

Yes, he burned it on purpose.
While he was burning it he was mumbling something about the Royal Family.

He has now moved, for which I am grateful.

Re: England calling

Not2Old
I have read this post over and over again.
I find this very insulting.
Your outlook on life is not my outlook on life.
Have a good day... I know I will.
