    That's awesome, Aless :) are you getting a) less rent, b) more space, c) clearly a nicer area it sounds! How fast will you move?

    I had a look for our old Life in the UK book but we couldn't find it. Once you read it and remember the random statistics (order in population of UK religions...etc), it's quite easy I believe.

    I wonder if I would pass the test Aless... lol...

    Great news about the move though :D

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Can guarantee you wouldn't without revising, Krystal! The questions are mostly really, really dumb demographics and statistics type questions as I recall. No-one knows that stuff innately!

    I think maybe only people that want to move to the UK know all that stuff.

    They should test a few people from the UK mixed with some people from other countries and see if they can spot the person from the UK :p

    Im off now, making Fajitas for dinner :D

    I love this post. Can you see the irony between the last line and the rest of it (I'm not sure if you meant this?):p

    :j for new place Aless - were you scouting the location when you went sphereing? :D

    Also, if you want to sell the books after you do the citizenship test please give me a shout, it would probably be a good idea for us to have a copy for when we move back to the UK.

    Grrrr :mad: OH doing my head in!

    Kids fed, Josh showered, Lexi bathed - now I just have to wait for the clock to show bedtime.

    Im a little bit :( because Lexi keeps refusing her bottles she usually has one in the morning as soon as she wakes, one early afternoon depending on our day plans and then one right before bed. The only one she will entertain at the mo is her day time one and I think she is too young to be dropping the others. Partly I suppose because it makes her less of a baby in some silly way to me.

    Hmmm Im rambling .... sorry :o

  • Sparkle - My LO was about the same age as Lexi when she dropped all her bottles so dont worry too much- will Lexi drink milk from a cup? I was lucky as LO loves milk and will drink it all day long.
