    Spud – WHERE ARE YOU?

    I'm here hun, I'm sorry I've not been around much.

    I'm trying to get some of my college work done because I start a second course in September - I'm not the sharpest tool in the box so I'm a bit worried I wont be able to cope with the 2 courses at once :o

    I havent been very good food wise for the last week or 2. I'm trying to get back to it, but if you want me to drop out of the challenge for letting the side down, I'll understand.

    Weller, I'm so sorry to hear about Oscar hun. We'll all be here if you need anyone to talk to.

    I havent had chance to catch up on anyone else's news, but I will try and read back as soon as I can.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Spud - you can't think like that.. I have put weight on so don't worry about you letting the sound down....

    Good luck with the studies though, they are more important at the mo:T

    Spud, don't you dare drop out.....you've lost 8lbs, that's fab - much better than I'm doing!! You've got plenty to concentrate on with your courses so don't worry too much about the dieting - but make sure you pop on for a chat every now and again cos we miss your funny posts!

    Spud - behave! No ones name can come off that list, I have you now Mwahahahaha.

    Pap, 2 cookies and a cheese sarnie won't hurt in the grand scheme of things.

    Sammy, how's your bottom now?

    Ok, all of you who've ever dealt with an estate agent in this country, how many times has an agent been out, taken video on her mobile phone for you, emailed it across and then said, if you're going to offer go in nice and low because some of the carpets look a little worn in places??

    I've had the inspection report, that looks much better than the first one. So, now, I need to wait for Lee to see it, offer...get my inspection done,pay, move. Easy eh?

    And another thing, I had to open a US bank account today, no application form, just email over your passport, here's the account number, fund it and we'll send you your cheque book and cards. How much agro is opening a bank account here? Doesn't seem right to me, but that's how it is over there so OH keeps telling me. He's been moaning about all of the bloody paperwork in this country since I've known him, now I'm getting a feel for what he's on about.

    good to see its all coming together... how quickly could you move if you offer and buy, is it quite quick over there compared to here? do you own your house here? will you sell that or just rent it?

    I sold back in January Pap, used the money to clear debt and the rest into savings. Now we're selling the business (which caused all of the debt in the first place) and with the cash we're buying a new house.

    I'm not rushing actually moving, we have visas to sort out, but also I need to get my youngest into a special school. House/visa comes first after that we can start organising schools and the other stuff. We have a choice of visa we could go over on an entertainers visa, or a business one. I dunno, we have an immigration lawyer on the case.
