Yes you have summed it up very well, and I only wish I had of seen the bigger picture before I came. I certainly had my rose coloured glasses on, and now I can see very clearly after having been here for 2 years, problem is I dont think that I would have taken any message from this BEFORE I came, its only now. Thanks you have voiced what many of us feel, and now its time to return!!

Well Gizmo,
I have had such an hard ride, so much has happened, and I was so under the impression that nothing could be worse than UK! When in fact its just all the same. We are going for our 1st trip back in 4 weeks time, so it really is a test of have we done the right thing (hubby loves it here!) but I think the lady who was going back after just 8 weeks opened my eyes, and I thought I was so very unhappy (almost breakdown) and why did I stick it for so long?? just because people say you should for 2 years, to adjust etc, so this trip will be the test.
Karen
