    I'm getting my head down before the long flight home tomorrow.

    Internet access isn't always easy or reliable here either . :(

    Sorry Arthur not feeling well today.

    Also feeling so anxious about the spouse visa. Still waiting for a decision.

    Laid up on the sofa with man flu... Legs fill like jelly, snot in abundance and coughing for England... Also lost half my bonus I was due to get at work next month for not going sick this year, goodbye £700! Shame, I only had last night and tonight to do and off until Monday night, but really am rough!

    I can't remember having many sick days at all.
    I do remember having flu one Christmas though. Two weeks off work which was the longest I've ever taken.
    That flu was just terrible

    Thanks Peter...and yes, of course I'd rather not have to come back here, but at the moment this place generates the income.

    Following the early development of our baby has been quite fascinating. That first smile (last week), being particularly special.

    He's a lot noisier than my first son though !

    Thanks Jake.

    Early days yet, deciding where he'll be living further into the future. For the moment it suits us all him being among family in the Phils.

    His mum and I want to build a little house near her hometown. That should take care of his 'pre-education' years.

    I've never known this forum this quiet. I've noticed Dedworth got banned though and I suppose that takes a good chunk away of posts being posted. I actually thought he was invincible lol. Wee Les seems to have disappeared too along with a few others.

    Quiet again ... ... surprisingly so, as I'd thought the cold temperatures here would've kept most of our British members indoors.

    ... c'mon, folks, where are you ALL today, hibernating or what?

    Started off fine but, ... for practically the whole afternoon, our forum input's been exceedingly minimal.
