... please feel free to slag me off, again Gremmie and Bob the dog

Gremmie

Canada will hardly miss you


So whats your feeble excuse this time

flat to the mat

Where's my bloody invite ?

Big Truck

You work to live Mick,
not live to work which seems to be the way in North America in general.

Family/home life is much more important than any old stupid truck driving job in ANY country!!!!

Feel free to join in the slagging FTTM but after 12 months loving the flatdeck work with ZERO complaints about anything, and more miles than I could ask for (which is all I wanted from H&R) you may struggle this time.

Excuse for what?

The REASON is that my wife thinks she may become too attached to our imminent first grandchild and won't want to return after the birth in December, so, instead of taking the offer of a valuable LMO and a 2 yr work permit from a decent company then not returning after the birth I declined it.

If I want to come back the door is always open (so long as LMO's are available).

There's a lot of truth in that, and I do enjoy truck driving in the USA, but I'm lucky enough to be able to make choices without too much regard to finances, so I may go to Spain and drive one of those tourist 'trains' up and down then prom in my old age.

Gremmie

So you are giving up your lives, so she can interfere with the up bringing of your grand child. OMG I feel sorry for the new parents all ready

mickfly

Well done Gremmie, you don't know my wife but you think she is going to interfere in the up bringing of a grand child! We haven't given up our own lives either you tit!

Trouble with you Mick is that you can't decide whether to take a dump or clean your teeth ,when you eventually make your mind up the missus chips in and it's back to square one .
No doubt users of this forum will look forward to your future posts from broken Britain telling all about how crap the economy/work is ,whilst we're still living the high life , and how you yearn to get back over here .
Some lead others follow ,grow a pair before it's too late . Struggle ? Me ?
BTW enjoy Benidorm mate

Hi Mick, I cam across this and thought I would share it.

THE CREDIT BELONGS TO THE MAN WHO IS ACTUALLY IN THE ARENA:
WHOSE FACE IS MARRED BY DUST AND SWEAT AND BLOOD:
WHO STRIVES VALIANTLY: WHO ERRS AND COMES SHORT AGAIN AND AGAIN:
WHO KNOWS THE GREAT ENTHUSIASMS, THE GREAT DEVOTIONS, AND SPENDS HIMSELF IN A WORTHY CAUSE:
WHO, AT THE BEST, KNOWS IN THE END THE TRIUMPH OF HIGH ACHIEVEMENT:
AND WHO, AT THE WORST, IF HE FAILS AT LEAST FAILS WHILE DARING GREATLY, SO THAT HIS PLACE SHALL NEVER BE WITH THOSE COLD AND TIMID
SOULS WHO KNOW NEITHER VICTORY NOR DEFEAT

Believe it was by Theodore Roosevelt.
Anyways keep on truckin Mick & Best of luck to you and Cath, I always enjoyed reading your blog
