I love the way that you can wander from bar to bar and hear a different definitive explanation of visas and health insurance.

Yes good luck George to you and your wife, I will be interested to hear on here how you are getting on once you are settled. Moe I would have loved to have seen Calis all that time ago :)

I like to joke now and then but the part about me getting shot by the police is 100% true. Happened back when the IMF decided to have a meeting here. Still got the photo of the copper taking aim at me before he pulled the trigger.

The problem is that when I go back to England I forget and sit in the car waiting to be served before Barrie nudges me to get out in the cold.

Now there is a topic - what does living abroad cause you to do wrong in the UK  :) I remember meeting up with a friend for a lunchtime pint on one of my trips back to the UK. I remember ordering the drinks at the bar, while chatting away with my friend. The beers came and I thanked the lady. I remember thinking, why is the barmaid so bloody nosey - why doesn't she go away now - then it dawned on me she was waiting for the money  :-\
