Just a quick update for anyone who's interested on our move to B.C. We are now awaiting the dredded medical exam :(  , this is where the doc says I have some incurible disease :ph34r: And then we wait anywhere between 3 to ten weeks and then we wait for our visa and then that's it, frainkly I am starting to shit myself a little, our life is starting to be packed into little boxs. Although there was one major bonus this week I handed my notice in at work :lol:  :lol:  :lol:. Trying to buy a house on the other side of the world is tricky and some would say a little crazy but we have had some really useful help from Needles, Outkast and Matt and Shovel_80 I cannot thank you guys enough, in fact all of you have been fantastic and Myself and my family thank you from the bottom of our hearts. the computer will be packed away soon so no forum for me :angry:  :(  :blink:  :ph34r: , I will keep you up to speed in the next few weeks for those interested, but that's it for now. :rockon:  :rockon:

Keep us informed as to what stages you are at so we can plan for when you get here.  I'm sure a few of us Shuswap guys will come down to help you unload and get set-up.

I look forward to meeting you.

I do not know your computer equipment.

Vancouver/Richmond are a hubs for computer manufacturing, you may be able to use your and when the time comes, take the hard drive out and buy another computer on this side.

Any way, what is your ETA (est.time.arrival)

Looking at Juniper Ridge, although the house we had our eye on has just sold, there's plenty more where they came from. :rockon:

Let us know when you'll be arriving in the 'Loops.  You may even end up with a aircooled entourage to welcome you.  I'll gladly make the trip from Salmon Arm provided the bug is on the road again. :wacko:   And I'll start working on OUTKAST.
