odies

hope you have cleaned and got flowers ready, enjoy

there has been tv programmes in the uk to show most meat over here is halhal , but does not say it on the products.Even in schools they have been keeping it quiet, so my assumption is it goes on whether we like it or not.IMO many see oz as standing up and not giving in, I probably wrong of course. very difficult to debate though.

next year Annjean xx however just found out the bus route has started and temporary for 2 years going past my house, bus stop next door, not happy.

Read me like a book ...

seems a good price , we have been quoted off Iron Lady which was good but RORO and hubby did not like the idea of that, so back to a 40ft container which is an extra £1200 .Still undecided , thanks for the info on diesel prices Porty

been the tip too many times, given away a bit, but can still fill a 20ft container BUT love this thread to help. I had thought a new duvet, low tog and a vacuum cleaner ?

lovely post saffon, wish you well in your new rental.

take away the mortgage / rental prices is it ok for a 2 retirees to live ok. these threads keep playing on my mind, sorry.

hope you will be up north, just what my hubby wants, also at a reasonable cost, prices of barbers here frighten him. We have been many times nov/dec nice time to come.

I know coco very nippy today, decided to clear a few cupboards to try and get warm. Wanted to do a car boot yesterday then it snowed ,needless to say no car boot.

gosh Dom Dom talk about keeping fit.

great Deb, it will be coffee soon xx

both, I think

is an answer to this that I need to buy a new vacuum and bring it over ?

had a look, seems good , thanks for that, a bit like uk rotary club.

anything we would consider, what is the probus club and where ? thanks

spending much of my time thinking in the last few days of what we are going to do when we arrive and move in to the house. I would like to hear from any older pp'ers on what to do. I have been to Perth 14 times now so I know about the sunsets, the blue skies, the beaches etc. would like to know things to get on with and things to do. At home we have places to visit in a day, wkd breaks, friends for lunches out, life long friends to drop in on for coffee, and we are getting bored. So I am naturally thinking am I going to be even more bored. Also reasons why you made the move in retirement like us to be near grandchildren and is it all it is cracked up to be? ie is the cost of living massive, are the doctors ok, is the tv not as bad as you thought, etc etc panic is setting in and only 6 weeks retired here in uk

hi, did you pay by credit card ? if so ring the credit card company you may be able to get your money back. Also as Porty says help others , this is awful.

I used moneycorp yesterday, the rate was 1.84 then 10mins later 1.82 but with no commission , if that helps. was annoyed to loose £150 in 10 mins. no transfer fees either.

wishing you all the best VS, thanks for your support, and we wish you well xx

I am so pleased for you both Beany xxx something else will happen xx

thanks Porty x

ok, breathe I have just put the transfer of the visa in place, should be with them a week on monday. panic setting in

Beany... so exciting xx
