PontePom Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Good Luck Missus B You're doing what is right for you Why can't some understand that their is no written rules on where you live and how you live your life You and you alone know what is right for you For those that always have to have a say hold your heads in shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlobeTrotta Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Firstly, I have never spent years and years, dreaming, planning and preparing for a forever move to Australia. It was a great opportunity which I decided to take. I had the guts to take it. Secondly, I do not miss ''mummy and daddy''. My dear mother is no longer with us and my Dad is away for most of the year. I lived nowhere near my family for the last 8 years. :realmad: Missus B you answer to no one but yourself (unless you a partner/hubby et al.) you do what's right for you I admire your spirit and the way you handle these rude remarks another reason I will be leaving PIO good luck to you and if ever I need a paramedic God I hope its you. Good luck and take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojogunne Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Missus B, I'm sure everything will be fine with your move back. You sound as though you are someone who knows what is best for them and know how to achieve that. Good luck with everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest68546 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Nothing wrong with opposing views and the OP did post in an open forum. If everyone said congratulations, well done, etc it would just be one big sycophantic love in. Opposing views can be good when done with a modicum of courtesy. FWIW, I think the OP is leaving a tad early but to use Glasgow parlance 'she's big enough and ugly enough to make up her own mind'. You can only wish her good luck. (Disclaimer for those of an easily outraged nature (sad that I have to put this in); this is not a personal attack on the OP) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offending post wasn't though, despite the later attempt to make out it was a general one rather than a targeted one. Pretty sure that was why people reacted to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siblin! Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It is so funny how when we are in the UK we never think we have much of a 'culture' but when you leave it behind you see just how wonderful it was and how the UK is steeped in 'culture', history and wonderfulness ) Good luck, i'll be joining you very soon!

Ain't this the truth, you become so used to the history the wonderful scenery the 4 seasons BBC, the food and the people that you take t for granted, t is only when you don't have it anymore you realise how much it really means to you.

debbie13 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Good for you Missus B, I really hope things work out for you and that you will be back on your feet quickly. It must have been a difficult move, coming over on your own and I totally get that it would have been lonely in your situation, most of the people I have met have been through my children, I wonder how I would have coped in your shoes. All the best on your journey home, I hope you have some good memories to take back with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Hello :mask: <---- me in mod mode I've just had a bit of a tidy up in this thread. I had posted a fair few pages back about not hijacking this thread. I am guessing perhaps not everyone who replied after has read that post :biggrin: Missus B, as I have said before, grown woman, knows her own mind and is happy she is making the right decision for her. This is a thread for her to share that news with others and to chat about it. Its not about the bigger picture of why others may choose to leave Aus or any of that. If you want to do that, go start your own thread please. Thanks in advance. Again. S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackerjack Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Some people don't get people migrating back to the UK, but believe it or not, there are some people (myself included), who never get why anyone wants to leave. Happy homecoming Missus B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramot Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Wish Missus B all the best for her move back to UK. Picking up on your point about not understanding why anyone should want to migrate from UK, not many people who migrate, are forced to migrate, unless they are moving from a disadvantaged part of the world. So whether or not you understand their motives it's a personal choice even if it's not something you would contemplate. You appear happy in UK, that's fine, but some of us are equally happy to live in Australia, that's equally fine. Each to their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parley Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 A lot of people live their whole lives even in the town where they were born. They never leave the town let alone the country. Some people want more though for a variety of reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul1Perth Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I can only assume it maybe due to the size of oz or expense but I know soooo many Australians who have never ever left the country to visit others, and many who have never left Perth, I know soooo many people where I grew up in Derbyshire who have never left the town (Chesterfield) went to Skeggy or Rhyll to the miners camps every year for their holidays, married a girl out of the class at school, got divorced and married another girl out of their class, used to work down the pit till they closed, go to the same pub or miners welfare every night, with the same people they've known since school and are perfectly happy with their lot. No right or wrong in anyones decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missus B Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 P1P ? I was making a statement, not starting yet another argument aus v perth. What is your problem? Sigh....read it again. I think he was agreeing with you. He also said there was no right or wrong, which means he's neutral, therefore, not starting an argument.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harpodom Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Just seen this Missus B, it sounds like everything is falling into place for you, almost as if it was meant to be, even down to getting your kitties back!

whichway1 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Great news.How nice it feels when you know you've made the right decision. Going home can be just as exciting (if nor more so) than coming out in the first place. Reading your post reminded me of that excitement and I am so happy for your. I've been home a year and don't regret my decision one bit x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
