That is sooooo funny, lmao!!

Sadly Penguin.....I have realized that life in England is far better, even with our grey skies. Its the quality of life that I'm going back to, and in a nutshell...

CULTURE AND CIVILIZATION

Packing my suitcases and bags...and a message to all my Brit pals in the USA....sunshine, you can get that in sunny Spain for 39 quid return

I never experienced tons of rain and grey skies while living in England. The summers were brutal, with an old home which trapped heat. People telling me every damn year, 'Oh, summer lasts about one month in England' whilst the drought continued, the heat burned.

I wanted damp cold and got tons of sun instead.

its wierd.... but when i was leaving here the first time around and went back home it was funny things i was missing... affordable clothes. I can go out here and buy decent clothes for my cheap purse. I was just going to go into a tirade.. but i wont.. not really up to it this morning.. All i am saying is for most negatives me personally can find a possitive to equal it out. The one and only thing that really is worrying me to death is health. I dont know if its better or worse on either side of the puddle. But knowing at the begining of the year i have to work 2 months to cover all my co pays and deductables for the coming year before i can go to the docs for free actually is starting to norgle .But again i wont go into that. I had my own bad luck with the NHS care too. Anyone posts on here and says i am packing and going home i read it and am interested in all the whys and why nots each individual is experiencing but that is it.

I think we have to make our own life and let it lead us and take each adventure as it comes. When did a bit of weather bother a brit ! I always laugh at this....anyone leaving or going back always the weather is mentioned!! Is weather a quality of life? Although i would swop rays pool for my garden right now.. but its like wishing i won the lottery, its out of my hands. Only what i can change is what interests me. The weather aint one of them. And vomit on the street - go to amsterdamn there are free shows on how the vomit gets there daily...but its part of amsterdam !! there are nicer things too like architecture, museums, shopping.

Each country has a lot to offer, this one at the moment has the comedien that lives in the house! New car sticker seen yesterday - support our troops! the next one said - support his oops!

good luck on ur way home!

You know, you're getting awfully repetitive. I hope you go home, and enjoy your life - I wish you well.

And yeah, I'm a yank, and I generally stay out of people's right to moan on this board. I appreciate homesickness, missing family, missing things being the way you're used to. And honestly, I generally take no offense.

But you - you're on your way home. So fine. What's your point with this? It is quite irritating.
