IBTL! No medical threads btw ;)

It is ridiculously Huge! I have been there twice. Once on a friday and today (saturday) and all the facilities were less than busy. It seems here that there is just so much room and money that nothing is ever busy! i.e both times I have seen the swimming pool bit on the mall it has been at...

DEVON! End of!

The problem is that the pickups you are driving feel unstable at 70 lol! added to the fact that a gert great deer or even worse an elk might just launch out in front of you stops you from doing it! lol! Also you dont want to run out of fuel ;)

The vastness of the country really doesnt hit you till you end up on a road that is straight for literally hundreds of kilometers its very strange!

Just the fact I am here on my own without my Misses and daughter! In addition I am drunk, read back my original post and its mehhhhhhh lol

Right guys! So I am here now :O! It is very, very different to the uk. You have to drive EVERYWHERE. Because all the settlements are on prairie <sp> land the city is mega spread out (think the size of london but with only 1m people) I am enjoying it so far to a certain extent as its all...

This! ^^

Hopefully it wont come to that gary! We are bloody skint here so we would be coming back at the cost of a lifestyle. I am almost 100% confident we will not be coming back as we hardly see our families anyway.

Yeah the highways industry in this country is basically all conjecture in the form of transport planning and engineers trying to polish turds by reworking our inferior highway system. Abroad is the only place to actually get to build roads unless you are fortunate enough to get involved in...

No worries mate! If you send me an email I will put it to follow up and wont forget. Think my trust should work. Alternatively add my msn id.

Homesickness isn't a factor for me really, I love my family but I hardly see them as it is and they only live 50-100 miles away. I grew up moving around all over the place living in Germany so being out of the country is no issue. Adapt and conquer ;) My misses was slightly apprehensive at...

Well I am going with the full intention of staying there long term but yeah like you said if we dont like it we will come back! My thinking was that if you turned down an opportunity like this that you would regret it for the rest of your life so I just went for it. Either way I will get...

HA! I have never been Skiing before despite the fact I grew up in Germany! I am dead keen to have a go at it though. It will probably be our first holiday once were out there :D I suppose kids can start skiing as soon as they can walk lol. Book my flight out there last night :D C-Day is...

Housing bubble? You do seem to be able to rent awsome houses over there :D I will definately be renting at first but was planning on buying eventually. Ah i see! Didnt see the .jpg at first ;)

Civil Engineering is a good profession to get into however not in this country at the moment!! There are hardly any jobs about and the money is carp so if you want to get ahead fast you need to be prepared to move abroad really! Unless things change in the next few years that is.

I am a Civil/Highways Engineer. Got a Bsc(Hons) in Civils and CAD at Plymouth Uni, prior to that I did a BTEC in Construction and the Built Environment and now have about 4 years of experience under my belt. I will be going over there and working in the same position as here really however I...

Afternoon chaps, Was getting cheesed off with my job here and financially I was struggling due to having a babby and the better half stopping work so started looking for jobs. About 6 months ago I saw an advert in some professional press for positions in Canada and just thought "why the hell...

As Kahn says it would act as a simply supported beam. Its a case of force x distance.

When you "manually" pollinate the flowers is it a case of just brushing the stamen about so the pollen flies around and goes into the stigma? GOt about 8 plants at the moment of varying species all with 40+ buds on. want to make the most of them once they flower :D
