Thanks eve and thanks for starting my own thread. I'll recap

Had a bit of a barny with Terri in the UK in Februrary which nearly had us splitting up and me planning a new life in spain. Anyway we sorted it and she decided she'd also like a new life in spain so I came out to spain last week by myself leaving her and the baby at home. Plan was to get myself sorted out here and then they'd follow me out. With the insurance that if things didnt go to plan I'd have somewhere to go home to.

Arrived on Monday and met up with Keri off this forum. We got on like a house on fire but he suddenly dissapeared with just a text saying that he had to leave.

Got myself and apartment sorted out for a month in Benalmadena. Its just a studio but thats fine because I dont know where i'll be working yet. Im in IT Support so I could end up anywhere.

Since Keri left I've not really had any friends and have been locking myself in the hotel a bit But today Im hoping will be a successfull day. I have to ring a guy back about a possible job and im meeting the JDRs tonight. Im also going into Fuengirola to get phone topped up and basically just get out there a bit again hehehe.

I'll keep updating the thread. And im about to post a video of whats been going on. So keep watching!

Miss Naughty

Good luck and i really do hope things go well and most of all have fun xxx

Hi all,

FINALLY, after like 2 days of editing through 7 hours of footage and 3 hours of uploading through the hotels crappy wifi connection. Part 1 of my emmigration video is published.

You can either stream it and watch it online or do a right click and save as to download the file to your PC to watch later. You might want to do that as the full video is 48 minutes long, and theres probably going to be bits youre gonna wanna fast forward that might be boring. But ive done my best to keep this as relevant as possible. Its just got a lot of me yabbering on infront of the camera as well as its a video blog, plus scenes and stuff of my life in the UK before i came to spain. Theres also tonnes of cute baby too. You'l certinatley get to know me a lot better by watching this video anyway.

Its in windows media format so everyone should be able to play it. If you dont have time to watch it all then please just watch the last 5 - 10 minutes.

Ive uploaded it here:

Ola, OLA

Pictures, absolutely fabulous.

Now I have to ask, if you are staying in a Hotel and you are paying for he food please, go eat it. Don't be shy about being on your own, I "lived" in a hotel in brum monday to friday for six months so i know where you coming from but think of the budget my man.



And tidy your bedroom!!!!

and tell Steph to tidy hers.

OK, a few points about the vid mate.

Firstly, I speak for many people on here in saying.......don't you ever make your bed man? I couldn't cope with that!

Secondly, Fresh Prince?!

Thirdly, Cider!!!! Goooood man!


Seriously mate, thanks for the vid, its surely what BE is all about, and sometimes we forget that. Terri looks lovely mate, glad you made the right decision about her.


oh and mate, you could have powdered the bald mans head, the glare was intense!

Hi Andrew

I will make this quick as I am rushing around clearing up as we might have visitors coming to day.

I just want to say that I have read most of what you have been saying in other threads and although I may not comment much I am routing for you and you are often in my thoughts. I know you are feeling lonely at the moment and for some it is not easy to strike up a conversation so maybe when you are out one day and see someone sitting on their own have a coffee or just sitting watching the day go by just think that they too may be lonely and wanting a friend to talk to. It's easy for some but not for others and it will of course get better when you get some work as you will meet plenty of people then. You and Teri can make a go of this if you work together, before you know it she and the baby will be out there with you. In the meantime she will be there for a few days next week and of course your friend will be an added bonus. I will download your artistic efforts some time to day and have a little look. Take care Andrew much love and kama sent to you.

Oh just seen you miss n, glad to have you back on line will chat later must rush.

rugbymatt

Just don't look at his bed, a royal mess!

crispy

Mess, I can live with that I had teenage daughters

onlineamiga

The mess was one push factor for going, dont wanna diss her too much on here but despite terri working less hours than me and having 3 days a week off work she'd never tidy up. There was a whole segmant to the video about the mess but it was cut out. I figured a small 2 bedroomed apartment would be easier to keep tidy than a 2 bedroomed house. sometimes less truely is more.

TheArmChairDetective

Ah, the old less space more mess arguement

rugbymatt

If you want mess mate, meet my OH, she is the worlds messiest!

I blame the parents, hers followed her around and cleaned up after her, I'm too soft on her thats my problem.

TheArmChairDetective

and her opinion is please?

rugbymatt

well she doesn't cook, doesn't clean, keeps ALL her wages, and goes out whenever she wants.

What do you think?
