This is my last full day in Canada.

I've been packed for over a week. Watch out all you Brits, I'm on my way.

Have a lovely time, If people think you're from the 'States, please explain

carefully and gently!

Have a nice trip Koan;)

I have a "tour guide" who'll make sure I'm safe until I develop my own accent. If necessary, I'll plaster a maple leaf all over my person.

It's more than a trip. I'm not coming back.

Have a Safe Journey. I hope you have a wonderful time in your new home. :-6

Where are you moving to Koan?

Aylesbury, England.



I picked it out of a hat.

eta: very cute pic, Rapunzel!

Well, have a nice trip and have fun in you new home...

Koan, I wish you a safe journey and love, luck and happiness in your new home.:-6

I admire your courage to make such a huge change. I hope you love it there.

thank you.

I've been having far too much fun for one person already. I'm a fun factory.

no plant?

I'll let you know when I'm settled and you can send a housewarming plant. A nice vine perhaps?

great little flashy house, btw, thanks.

Crikey! You're settling in the UK, or using it as a jumping-off point, or just seeing

how it goes? What a surprise!

I'm just going over the pond, really. My ex said he was too old to do anything like this. He's only a year older than me. Thanks for the encouragement!

Settling. Have to stay there at least five years to get my citizenship so my daughter can claim ancestry as well. Then I'll probably hop around but keep my home in the UK.

The weirdest part is how good it feels to reduce my possessions to one suitcase and a couple of small boxes.

Will you and Spot be neighbours?.....

From the sounds of it I'm going to have a lot of neighbours from FG

Good luck with the move and best wishes! :-6

Koan

I also admire your ability to move to a random place. You've got chutzpah :guitarist

May you create many wonderful memories in England. My *very best* wishes to you, my friend :-6

Must admit I've had some help choosing.

My grandmother being born there is the first factor and the exact location was suggested. I picked it from a small group of possibilities.

Hopefully I'll be able to report success very soon.

KOAN I ADMIRE YOUR COURAGE!!

Sorry about the caps but I truly do admire you.

Dam shame however that we loose yet another Canuck, this leaves me as the longest standing canuck member of FG

All the best to you, I hope when I get back there, you are on the roster of the next FG meet up.

Hey by the way if you have any citizenship issues you check with Raven, granted she was a yank but she may have good info for you.

Cheers mate

I think it's so exciting!!



when we moved to Florida we got rid of everything, threw some clothes in the car and just went for it. We ended up living there for 10 years. :-6

what part of the UK are you moving too i went to the u s earlier in the year



and to be honest i hated it at least in England they know i'm trying to be



funny



Canadians have a much better sense of humour i think









well except for the Americans on this forum obviously

Those bloody Brits are recruiting now eh? No recruiting allowed. Minks looses an ally, Pinky and Hammy gain one. ( Sorry Dont think Spot needs any allies.) Now no more recruiting! Got it!

In my search for temporary accomodations I've got a number of ideas about where we can meet up. There are amazing self catering places in heritage buildings.

clearing the clutter makes for a great fresh start. I can actually breathe easier when I give all my stuff away.

We need more people like you.

wait a minute...what kind of people am I?

Trust me, you haven't met my neighbours, or indeed, most of the population of Lowestoft.:rolleyes:
ah. alright then.

unfortunately I tried to give my thoughts away for free and was told I was charging too much.

It rains a lot there. but you won't notice you are from BC hehehehe

ArnoldLayne wrote: LOL haha Minks, it does but me and pinky were refering to the, lets say, alledged inter-breeding that goes on in the Fens. Its become a bit of a beast for that part of the world to bare but they take it in good spirit


ahahahahaha OMG I think I will go and stick my other duck foot in my mouth now ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Koan, how brave you are.

I wish you the best of British luck.
