Well, as some of you may know from my many posts here, i'm emigrating to New Zealand

As you can guess from the title, i'm emigrating in 13 days (from the day i posted it ;) ), on the 1st of October. The chances are i'll probably not return to England and if i do it'll be in a few years time when i can afford it, and only if its for some certain occasions ^-^

So come the 1st i'll probably be inactive on the UE for a while untill i get an internet connection (which i have no idea when that will be, may be the next day..or a few months time).

It feels really weird leaving everything behind and starting new...in a country i have never been to and know noone there...

Also the fact my friends have been throwing me the best ever leaving parties (and i still have another 3 day one to go!!) is making it hard to leave here. But it should (hopefully) be a better life for me and my family. And heck according to some random NZ student forum i visited, girls love the British accent ;)

Anywho enough of my Ramblings. Having packed away my models, and shipping them off on Friday, it will take 3 months for them to arrive in my new home in New Zealand so i'll be out of the hobby completely for a while.

So why not post this closer to the day i go? *points* the number of days on a Skaven follow should explain why ^-^.

Anywho, wish me luck!

Don't worry mebob. We'll make the sure the underempire stays where it's at while you get things sorted in the NZ :ph43r: . Have a good trip and we'll see you on the other side ^_^ .

Too bad we'll be missing out on the polls though :unsure: .

Cheers,
Bodacious.

Leaving England?

Very long story, so i'll list the main points:
Mums dream to retire in the bay of plenty (in New Zealand)
My Sister is emigrating in 6months-2 years time
Parents want a better life and future for me

And so on...

But we were going to try out the next doomsday device that day! <grumble> :P

Good luck to you mebob.

By the way, is there some reason New Zealand will provide a better life for you than England?

Ha ha ha, that made my day!

Not the leaving bit, mind, the other bit. :P On a more on topic note, worry not, I'm sure not TOO much will have changed by the time you get back online, (bar maybe a few more Lords of Decay emerging). :rolleyes:

Trip sounds like... fun. Take care of yourself!

(and the fact i find out the girl i like has a crush on me 3 weeks before i leave...*grumbles*)

Sad......I feel sorry for you for that. Fate has a strange way of dealing hands to you, or just plain dealing strange hands to you.

29 hours....better get some warhammer novels and read them on the plane. ^_^

Anyway good luck with your new life and get back to UE.net soon!

I was saving all of them for the flight+ first few weeks of New Zealand... out of all of them i only have Ravenor and the Arsen book left to read ^-^ teehee.

12 days left! :o

Fish is quite common dish in parts of New Zealand, or so i've heard, so is Lamb.

...you can still call me Rusty Tincanne if you want, though.

Safe travels Mebob. Personally, though we'll all miss you in your absence, I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to the extra leg room in this place while you're away. :P

And I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that we don't mind if you're gay, either. :lol: We also don't mind if you're not gay. You just keep on being the best you you can be. And I hope you enjoyed your "date" last night.

Be well. (and don't get stuck in LAX. That airport stinks to sleep in! I was there for over 24 hours last spring. :( )

True enough, but, to sidestep a bit, I see several problems in that overused sentence:
1) There are good and bad fish in the sea, and everyone wants the best one
2) Following up from #1, you have specific fish you want. You can't make a sea bass dish with mackerel, nor a tuna dish with arrowana.

Then following up from those, there are several ways ppl catch their 'fish'.
1) A fishing pole with one hook (whatever comes near)
2) A net (one's bound to be whatever you're looking for)
3) A harpoon (one aim, one shot, one catch...or not) <- I tend to follow this one. Until now i still have no gf :(
4) Stealing other ppl's fish (.....)
5) An electricutor (this one gets all the fish with little effort)

I didn't mean to offend anyone who uses this statement, but I think it's not always justified to say it.
