  • No but I can tell you in Cheshire my car is covered in a foot or so of snow so should be fun to get to my real job today. Roads look pretty lethal. Good luck Jen, I know you guys have it much much worse up there. Perhaps its time for us to go live back in Australia as hubby got made redundant yesterday. Merry f****ing Christmas!

    Oh no!!
    That's terrible, especially at Christmas too
    Is he likely to get another job?
    Could you make enough doing MS full time between you?
  • Oh no!!

    No not a chance. He's in construction which is the worst affected industry. Was earning good money so bought house with massive mortgage. Eeeek. Time for more sunnier climes. I wanna go back home now.
  • OOH Well Done Optimum pulse
    Did the job Tuesday and money in the bank yesterday!!:T

    My daughter who is in Japan at the mo is thinking about moving to Australia next year (mainly for the diving!)
    At least it's warm and sunny
    What brought you over here then MG? Did you get fed up with all that lovely weather?

    Seems ok here, icy but not as cold as it was yesterday. I was out driving near Ed Airport yesterday and on the main roads it was ok.

    Got a blizzard
    I'm supposed to be in Perth (Scotland, not Australia) to do my last 2 shops!
    Jen, my son wants to move to Canada
    Anyone would think i was a terrible mum the way they both want to get as far away from me (and each other) as possible, Would be good if they at least ended up on the same continent as each other- I don't want much;)
