odies Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Oh gosh Deb, I know how you feel but the other way around .You will not have long to wait though if they are all coming, so keep skypeing . grandchildren brake your heart , funny I never believed the love you have for grandchildren is so intense and so different. I find it so difficult we have 1 son in Oz and 1 son 4 hours drive away in Norfolk, as the saying goes never let you children go to uni !!!

It is, this is the second time from what she has said that she has walked away. You have to have a bit of a thick skin to be a regular on any expats forum.

Lou8670 Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Oh no, that's a real shame. Pea has made a fantastic contribution to this forum. It's important everyone is able to give their view as it's so helpful to others. Pea will definitely be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odies Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 I do not think you need to be thick skinned as we are all trying to help and support each other in the visa process and the reality of living in Oz, so therefore we should all be kind to each other in our postings. The contribution Pea and a few others on this forum is invaluable ,the support when we have the wobbles, the help with what must be the same old questions. Pea will be very sadly missed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pea will be very sadly missed I agree we should be kind but when it is the written word it can often be taken in a way that isn't meant and they spit the dummy. I don't know Pea so I can't comment on what has happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
