Hello from Southport
« on: February 18, 2004, 20:29:28 PM »
Hiya,
we are Russ and Jan from Sunny Southport LOL. We are really really thinking of selling up and moving to Calis. We spent 2 very happy weeks there in September 2002 and we haven't forgotten how much we fell in love with the place. We did have the good fortune (or was it misfortune?) to meet Fatih (Marc) from the meeting point but we did make the mistake of giving him our address in England. Yes you've guessed it, he did come over to sample Jans wonderful Curry. Seriously though, he's a great guy and so is his brother and all his family. Jan says that Sinasi gives good massages as well:D
One question to anybody though, how do we post a picture of ourselves on here??
See you all soon
Russ and Jan

Hi Russ & Jan
Welcome to the forum.
You need to upload your pic to some webspace, and use that location in your reply, so the actual line would read something like:

[img ]http://www.yourwebspacename.com/russpic.jpg[/img ]

The [img ] & [/img ] tags are automatically added when you click the 'insert image' button when you are writing your reply, you just add the http(etc)location between the two.

Good luck to you Pearl and Dave, we hope to be joining you very soon. We are hoping to buy a place this year and then just leave the rat race behind and put our feet up  :)

Hi russ and Jan
We left Tarleton, hesketh bank 3yrs ago, when they stated building executive estates??? on the lovely fields.  Iworked all round southport for a nursing agency
we have moved to sunny Lincoln which is b eautiful, with much warmer summers but my sons are still around the Longton area, where I used to own the Riding school near to Police HQ.
we have bought an apartment in calis and I am going out on 7th May to furnish it and hope to attend the party on 12th May
