    Why do I think I have to go back?

    I keep thinking that it will soon be over. Like a holiday. Make sence? I can be driving the car along the road and think, I'll have to tell them about ..... I can be in work, looking at the way they do things and the prices and feel as though I'm looking at it to prepare a report for "work" when I get back. I know I am never going back if I can help it (odd holiday perhaps), but I get these feelings that it's going to be over. I have to pinch myself and tell myself that, this is it, this is home.
    Any one else had these strange feelings?:goofy:

    I do know what you mean.
    We often went through it in our early years here.
    After 8 years Mrs Tyke and I still look at each other and say "We are in Australia!" :idea:
    It never ends in a way - we are always discovering things here or meeting new and refreshing people.

    Enjoy..................

    W've been here 18 months and slowly making our house our home .... but I still get that feeling now and again that somehow it's not real - I guess in part because some things still seem very new and unfamiliar, when I go into the city, I still find things I never knew was there before - or stumble across a shop that I'd seen but hadn't been able to find again lol
