Welcome back to cyberspace - you have been missed.
I too am out of work but my husband is working so in Ireland, one income is pretty good these days. Small peripheral islands seem to be really suffering in this economic mess. I was in the UK last week and while things are bad, there are jobs advertised in services which is unheard of here. It is impossible to get a job even in McDonnells, despite qualifications. Life really consists of lurching from crises to crises I reckon.
Your kids will settle back in probaly quicker that the adults and I hope those insect bites get sorted out.
We are not medically trained. While we will endeavour to be as accurate as possible with medical information, we cannot accept responsibility for any errors. Medical details given apply only to our daughter, the form of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia she has and the treatment she is receiving. Please consult your doctor if you have questions or doubts of any kind
Our daughter, Kezia, came down with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia at the age of two years in 2006 and was evacuated to the UK for treatment. Mum, Nanda, accompanied her and later Nanda's son Jaime went to the UK. Dad, Angus, stayed in Africa earning to support them and periodically visited them. Kezia finished treatment in 2008 and the family returned to Sao Tome e Principe mid-2009. Kezia is doing fine and hasn't relapsed but won'nt be considered "clear" until 2013. Meanwhile Dad was made redundant - at the best of times he's a consultant, sometimes a teacher and often unemployed. Poor White Trash.
We reserve the right to go off topic and talk about anything we damn well like.
