Wise thinking.

I don't necessarily know that i willfind it in Canada but just like all those who went before me, you took a risk trying to find it also. For some it worked out well and for other, not so well.

Re: Don't want to jump the gun

Lol .. Landed 08/12/08, left 21/01/09, went back 24/02/09, came back 03/03/09 and been in the UK since.

So in total I've lived in Canada for 7 weeks and 2 days since Dec 08.

That sounds so sad.

Re: Is this crazy thinking??

Apologies for the confusion .....
