<p>Sorry I havent replied before now Kat, I very rarely come on the forum much these days. We have been lucky as we live on a sand island so other than a short term stock problem at the supmarkets due to panic buying we have been fine. Good luck with your new adventure my love XXX</p>

<p>Good good :-) we had a very scary day on Monday - work was evacuated shortly after I was sent home at only 9am! I came back on the train and you could see the water rising so rapidly and I just managed to drive through the only road back to the island before it got cut off. We haven't been able to work since then but we thank our lucky stars we are safe. I see you are nearly ready for lift off! How exciting!!! Xx</p>

<p>Hi Kat hope you are well. Was gonna ask, are you on fb? X</p>

<p>Bless you Sister Optic! You too, all the absolute best xxx</p>

<p>Thanks for your kind birthday wishes Geoffrey. Still having a break from posting lol. Hope everything is going well. X</p>

<p>Hi Steph, just wondered if you got my pm about the job? Sue x</p>

<p>Thank you for supporting me yesterday Bridey on the "Do your homework" thread. The "pikey" comment really upset me, I thought it was a terrible phrase and I was grateful for your support on my reply. Take care xx</p>

<p>Not announcing it on the open forum but am having a little rest from the forum. Hopefully I'll be back, the only people who will notice are the ones who'll come on here. Take care in the meantime. X</p>

<p>Hi micky hope your little boy and wife are doing well now. So happy for your little family xx</p>

<p>He's up already!!!!! Leave em guessing what the powder might be...lmao...</p>

<p>Me too, Sister Optic...bless ya xx</p>

<p>Hurray! Imagine the embarassment if you'd said no! LOL :-)</p>

<p>Delighted to accept Nick! You've been quiet lately have you been busy? :-)</p>

<p>You've really surprised me saying you're shy, Happy! I know how you must be feeling, I began to think I'd never get a flippin job...definitely caused me yo feel alot more introverted as time went by. I look forward to the day I see you have found the employer lucky enough to have you. Xxxx</p>

<p>Thanks for your good wishes on the job Steph and I'm wishing you lots of good luck for your two interview outcomes too xxx</p>

<p>Thanks Cal...was an old thread and all those people meant well xx</p>

<p>Hiya Cal. I wondered if it might be worth closing the thread called 'should we stay in the uk or go to oz' by staceandjase. It got resurrected a few weeks ago and people are still posting advice on it even though they're in Oz now lol...still need to get together at some point :-)</p>

<p>I'll check with The Mad One and see when's good for her then we can sort something out :-)</p>

<p>Cal! Cal! Cal! Cal! Are you ever coming up to meet me and Claire? X</p>

<p>I'm so glad you are making the best of your lives Val, you've faced far more than most do in life and Rory would surely be so proud of you. Take care and stay in touch, it's good to know you are in a place that's helping to heal you both. Sue xxx</p>

<p>I would love to have called in. We weren't gone for long enough to enjoy it really and properly relax, it was too much of a whistle stop tour really but I'd love to come up again soon and we'll come and see you then if you're free xx :-)</p>

<p>BOB!!!!! Love your neck of the woods, it's breath takingly beautiful. Lucky you, eh? :-)</p>
