Hope to get over there before the year is out.Hope you continue to enjoy life in the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest snoo Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 But U must say home is always home and that being in Australia is always overseas. Well it is for me Totally dis-agree mate. Australia is our home, I never felt that the UK had anything to offer us or the kids....and 9months into our life in Perth I can honetly say I will never go back. And before anyone says it's ONLY 9 months....I know my own mind. Our Daughter was so unhappy when we arrived so for Xmas we sent her back for a month. She called us after a week and said she wanted to come home 'Australia is my home, this was an expensive lesson but I know I don't want to come back to the uk again' she said! Phew! Money well spent. I think it makes a lot of difference which part of the uk you are from too. And as chris and myself were practically neighbours I can understand that he's loving it in Australia! Can't believe it's been a year for him though! Good luck for the next year mate. Congratulations!! Lisa,xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
