Following Guidance And Joining The Ef


GOOD DAY
HAVING READ MOST OF YOUR MESSAGES FOR ALMOST OVER A YEAR, I FINALLY JOINED.

THERE IS ONE MAIN REASON FOR THIS. IT IS NOT THE PLACE TO GO INTO IT HERE, HOWEVER I MUST SAY THAT 'HE WAS THE INSPIRATION!'

I AM VERY KEEN TO MOVE AND LIVE IN SWITZERLAND.

ALL ON MY OWN GIVING A BATTLE OF LEARNING THE SWISS DEUTCH! THIS IS DIFFICULT AS THE SELF MOTIVATION IS NOT FOUND ON SHELVES!!

LOOKING FORWARD TO FINDING NEW FRIENDS.

REGARDS

Re: Following Guidance And Joining The Ef

My husband is from Stevenage so I can see why you want to move here

When are you coming over?

WE HAVE HEARD OF THE WORLD IS SMALL SO MANY TIMES BEFORE, HOWEVER THIS IS VERY TRUE.
I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG AGO YOUR HUSBAND LEFT STEVENAGE, HOWEVER IT FEELS LIKE THEY HAVE NOT UPDATES EVEN A SINGLE DUST PARTICLE AROUND HERE.

I WILL BE THERE AS SOON AS I AM SORTED WITH WORK, FINANCE AND LINGO.

REGARDS

Comic Sans MS is also a hanging offence in some quarters...

I have had the pleasure of holidaying in Sedrun several times. I am enamoured with the place and the people there. I take photos, hence the name.

Re: Following Guidance And Joining The Ef


Taking photos is like art. You can never be totally satisfied until you get that feeling of satisfaction, what you created is exactly how you wanted it. So keep on trying for ever.

Welcome SPC

I moved over from Knebworth just outside Stevenage. About the only thing I miss about the UK is the Lyton Arms and one or 2 other hostelries in the area.

If one is keen to sample the brew there are all very nice options of course. Since the 'no smoking' ban the culture seems to move just outside of the doors rather then inside, which is very weird. When you walk down the road at 0530hours and see the all the buts just in the entrance area, you think to your self, was this really the solution??

Yes, but maybe the smokers should learn to use ash trays

Re: Following Guidance And Joining The Ef


Of course, ashtray would be good, if one needs to encourage the habit. I still think perhaps a more suitable area for this instead of just hanging around, especially for female population, it really looks like they are looking for business!
Same goes for the office/shop workers. It really is a shame.
By the way the Sedrun mild cheese is also very lovely, have you tried this?
Regards

There's no vote for you to stop changing the font style and colour for every post. It would get my vote.....

Re: Following Guidance And Joining The Ef

The more you post and show up at social events, the better you'll be known and the more you'll know what's going on But depending on their attitude occasional writers can be more liked and integrated than regular ones.
