Oh Shaun, hang in there. I hope your OH gets a new job soon and that the kids get school places. Is it primary places in London? I know that it's difficult and can be waiting for some children to move. But keep at them as I think the Local Authority HAS to provide suitable education, even if that's a private tutor.

The saga continues...!

I hope it all sorts itself out soon.

Take care of yourself and keep us up-to-date. *Hugs*

Welcome back and glad to see you settling in am sure everything will iron itself out over the next few months and who would've imagined shopping was cheaper in London than in Ireland

morning taxi
when i lived here before ,we always thought of london as being expensive,
esb and gas with no deals are costing 12 & 8 a week so jan feb bill will be 200 compared to €450-550 in irl
food is 240-270 for the month compared to €160 on a good week ,,
on paper its much cheaper however i wouldn't wont to be on minimum wage here and try to survive on it,,

InaPickle

Ireland is WAY expensive. God help those who live in the cities! :eek:

It sounds like you are settling in well. They are all baaarking down there, so maybe you fit in perfectly!
