We have made a commitment to Cyprus no going back to UK were not that wealthy enough to have two properties after all im just a humble out of work plumber ( with no degrees ) my parents werent wealthy enough to send me to university I left school 15 and have worked all my life the only degree I have is an A in bloody hard work. So lets see how clever you are pack up everything you have leave friends and family and move to a new country. BLOODY DEGREE MY ARSE.[/b]
I did pack up everything I own and left my friends and family behind and I moved to a new country 6 years ago. What's your point? Do you think that any other nation in the world is going to treat you any better? I have got news for you. No one likes outsiders wether that is good or bad. The same thing happens in the US and the UK and every other country people migrate to. Everyone thinks they will go to this new country and jobs are going to wait for them at the airport. Some get lucky some dont. Just try hard and things will fall into place.
