    Mind reader, I was was just this second going to give in and post a question about that! I had tried to make it sound gentlemanly, but I had given up:D

    I didn't realise that my box was full :eek:

    I feel very tired right now, I've finished chucking out stuff, my girls are on their way over to see me, very upset coz I am going. So I am probably gonna cry lots this afternoon. But I feel good in the fact that I've made my decision, for all intents and purposes it looks like it is the best decision, if not the most desired outcome. I just need to tell myself that there is no reason why I can't come back up to liverpool to live when I am in a better position.

    Too right - or wherever you end up! Where I live now is not somewhere I ever considered going but.. things happen.. and I love the place :)

    Yeah, I suppose taking big massive steps like this are scary but sometimes you have to do it, don't you?

    I still have a lot of stuff, I just hope it doesn't look like so much when I get it all packed up into boxes. I am still extremely surprised how much paperwork I thinned down. I don't know what to do with this punching bag though.

    I'm moving from the west coast to the east coast. Liverpool to Ingoldmells, about 180 miles according to google maps, my parents have a card stall right opposite fantasy island so the foot traffic in the six weeks of summer should be immense.

    Sounds fun BR ( sorry I hate using 'BR!') Sounds fun Rubes!

    Not many people who can say that they are moving to Fantasy Island!

    Yeah, it's almost a straightline accross the country, I'm feeling good about it atm. Gimme about an hour with the girls and then we'll see how I feel then. But yeah, fantasy island is a nice place, the markets there are cool too.

    Plus Skegness is only a short bus ride away and they have loads of nice tattooists. Never know, I might even get a tan for once in my life.
