Hello From Chichester UK

[Andy Chapman]

Thought i would introduce myself as i visited yesterday and found this to be a great Forum which has a brilliant Arcade which i'll try out soon.

My name is Andy Chapman i live on the South Coast of the UK near the city of Chichester.

I run my own carpet and upholstery cleaning business which has been going since 2001.

I am 57, and now single and love it.

Would love to retire abroad, but still haven't made my mind up. I think we get ripped off in the UK for everything and we don't even have the weather so why stop here, they are my thoughts and i'm sorry if i have upset anyone.

Long, long time ago when i was in my 30's i enquired about emigrating to Oz but the point system let me down and put me off.

I do, now i'm nearing retirement want to emigrate to Oz, but where in Oz i'm not too sure.

What i fear most is the very close friends i have, i have no immediate family just brothers & a sister and i know i shall miss them all very much.

I have no worries about money as i have 2 properties in the UK which i shall sell to pay for my retirement. I make friends easily so no problem there either.

Sorry i seem to have waffled on a bit but thought i had to Introduce Myself.

Oh & one other thing, i'm a little crazy and a bit of a joker. I like to have the micky taken out of me and i also like to give it.

Bye For Now

Andy
