    Hello there

    Morning all,

    I know I've been afk for a while, a quick recap to save any later

    German Gf chef and I have split up, no she didn't run off with someone else, no I didn't either, it just wasn't to be and better to discover that before marriage and kids came along. Perhaps the box was a sign

    I'm now living in Sweden, happy, still in contract and enjoying the last of a summer break before back to work.

    Sweden good points
    - great people
    - great seafood
    - high quality of living
    - cheaper house prices with lots of space for your money
    - easy to integrate into
    - Swedish is way easier to learn than german

    Sweden bad points
    - eye watering tax levels
    - stupid state run alcohol monopoly
    - high alcohol prices (luckily I'm living just a short trip from Denmark)

    So, that's my update, what have I missed in the last 2 months?

    P.s well done Brillo on your race

      Nice to see you back. Sorry things didn't work out with gf - still the box idea's good for reusing on the next one!

      My favourite break-up song:

      ART BRUT - PEOPLE IN LOVE LYRICS

      "People in love lie around and get fat - I didn't want us to end up like that."

            She had a sign in hers that said "we should see other people"?

              yep chef created a locked box to propose to GF chef, it never really got deployed, its a bit before ALF had a heart attack and after Kylie & Jason got married.

              Good to hear you are well chef, getting plenty of fish & meaty comfort food?

              can you not home brew over there?

                    There were updates - it all went a bit Pete Tong.
