I hope I get the chance to meet you and your wife and family one day - who knows I may visit the GC one day soon!

Birthday wishes to mrs S

who would want a life that was too easy.............please dont all jump at once lol

let me know if your up here and maybe we could meet for a beer:)

.Its different for us as theres only the two of us,which would make uprooting easier but so far so good here! :thumbup:

not realy brido, it can be a lot easier for you to return at the drop of a hat pal. so i think you have the harder bit.

great post Soapy,
i didnt know your dad had passed on though, sorry to hear that, but at least you managed a trip over to see him before

great post and well written, i really enjoyed reading it :)

i didnt stick it on here at the time. i have seen some of the replies other posters got when they went through the same thing. it wouldnt affect me, but pauline does read the forum and i could let her see the same shite others had to put up with.
i did stick it on another forum where you dont get any of that pish;)

thanks mate

:thumbup: :)
THANKYOU!!!!!

Hi great read. Just shows that if there are problems the right attitude is what is needed to make it work. You and yours have packed alot into your three years. May the next three be as rewarding. All the best. :thumbup:

Re: 3 short years

Did the trick Soapy. Had a lovely evening with my new mates, sat sipping champagne amongst the gum trees after our exercise class :) - homesickness all gone today :D. I'd send you more karma if I could.

I'll be working sometime next week,we took on the lease for Julies nail bar so i'll be stripping out the place,doin a bit of painting and decorating and maybe i'll have a stab at putting down floortiles before she opens up.

The wages are awful,$0.00 per hour but she'll make my tea and give me the tv remote once a week!

Once it takes shape ill have a look about for myself.Its getting to that stage where i think ive been out of work long enough!(cant believe i just said that,lol)
