gosling Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 No. Sheffield has changed too much in the 54 years that I've been away and I've changed a lot as well. Apart from this, I don't think I could stand the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no1machinist Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 That's harsh! Makes us all feel unloved here on the forum!! Not unloved at all Quite the opposite. Thats why I give you all the big sell on getting out. I am even looking to sponsor one of you Pommies out here to Aus just to give you a chance for a better future. A bit like adopting a third world kid you know;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingercat1 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 For all you ex-pats. If you were told that you had to return to Sheffield could you handle it and what would you miss most about where you are now? Personally I think I would top myself first. lived in usa for 39 years now, at this time in texas. i've been home on visits but it has changed so much, i don't think i could live there and be happy, though it will always be home for me. i came here to give the kids a better life than i had growing up, times were tough, but we still had fun, but i wanted more for my girls.
