    Hi, ty all for the hugs, much appreciated, Im not sure how to do multiple quotes, but I will try to clarify the situation a little for you guys.

    He has a aunt in this country and we have spent time there which for me was not the best! Basically when we were there it was so hot I couldnt do much with the kids, didnt have access to a car and it was too hot to go far with them, so it was pool side all the time (not a real life scenario).

    Although being told it would be cheaper to live there compared to UK, I found it more expensive! Eating out is something they do a lot over there and is more expensive than nice restaurants near me.

    So it was a trial run while we were there last summer, to which I and my DD didn't really enjoy the experience much and I longed to get home at the end.

    He won't have a proper job to go to, it will be here and there (just weekends) and jobs are hard to find in the summer months.

    He knows I did not enjoy the experience and struggled to do things with the kids.

    He visits and helps them every 2-3 weeks as it is, and has built friendships, but not with families, just single people and a gay couple.

    He said, home does not feel like home to which I replied home is where the heart is...but he just said he didn't have a home anymore :mad:

    I cannot even consider moving with him now as I have zero security with him after saying these things. What if we had all moved and he still had these feelings?

    I have explained to him that real life will be much different than his experiences he has every 2-3 weeks.

    I did ask if he had met someone over there, to which he replied no.

    I have a list of reasons for me and the kids to stay in the UK and the only reason for moving is better weather!!!

    Sorry to ramble.

    Don't suppose there's an online expat community that you could seek practical advice from?
  • Happy Chappy..... Ive sent you a message on "you know what"...

    I want to rattle your brain regarding this printer... I thought it best if I message you on the "other" rather than clogging this thread up with stupid printer issues!!!!

    Heading over there now. You didn't expect me to be on the go at 11am though did you?:rotfl::rotfl:

    OK think my printer may be broken :(
    Consoling myself with some warm woopsied mini doughnuts I got last night, don't want to have to buy a new printer but will get one if it's DTD :) so off to Ts to see if it's my printer or the ink cartridge that's broke and while I'm there see if theres any OOD printer SELs

    I have a wireless printer that I still haven't got working wirelessly ... I'm not sure what to do and scared that it'll take me hours :eek::D

  • Just been to my local work T's ([EMAIL="W@rw1ck"]W@rw1ck[/EMAIL]) and there are big signs everywhere that say the tills are messed up and that offers are going through at full price. Big signs everywhere saying that DTD does not apply. Spoke to staff and they said its nationwide. However, looking on this forum it seems thats not the case? Anyone else seen this?
