Re: Has Anyone Moved Back To The UK & Regretted It?

You sound like us and to be honest, I fear another 'ping-pong'. I'm particularly interested in your reasons as you are in Texas. I have PM'd you :)

Re: UK In Recession!

I must have got a bit of a bargain then. Gave birth 7 months ago in US and the bill was $7,000 USD.

I think you'd have to be having octuplets by cesarean with complications for it to cost $60k.

Re: When you left the UK, did you announce it?

Oh my! You have been busy. We get that same feeling of missing out on 'real life' when we talk to friends and old work collegues back home... we miss Europe too. We plan to move home forever but...

Re: It's really happening, We just sold our sofa!!

Isn't it funny - the things that make it 'real' for us, that we are really going home. We got rid of one of our cars last week. Today we've had 5 different people round from craigslist ad's. The...

Re: When you left the UK, did you announce it?

Totally agree with you. It is an easy life there and we miss that part of it. We really enjoyed Plano/Frisco. People are very nice too. Don't you think the sky is really big there?!?:blink:

When you left the UK, did you announce it?

Apart from telling your employer, family and friends (who may have come to notice eventually ;)), did you announce your departure to anyone else? or 'check-out' officially in some way?

Re: What made you leave the UK?

I agree with this and I am forever 'checking myself' for fear of making a bad decision by 'kidding myself' into a postulated future that may not be reality. I hope I am making sense.

Re: What Are They talking About????

I agree that the media are quite often merchants of chaos, however one can not deny the facts. The news this week has included 'Goodyear' dropping 5,000 jobs. Less cars selling/leasing = less tires...
