Rabbit Omlet products for sale

[Omletina Kyckling]

Well, it's all been happening in the Omletina household the past few weeks.....first we lost our savings last week because they were with Kaupthing Isle of Man which isn't covered by the UK scheme and they haven't been bought out. The last time anybody claimed under the Isle of Man Scheme, it took ten years for them to pay out!!

 

THEN hubby was told that his contract with Volvo was going to end at the end of the year, then the end of November and then on Thursday they told him it was the 7th November!! Volvo are owned by Ford and as Ford are in difficulties, they've told Volvo to get rid of all consultants, so he's out of a job. All a bit of a shock really.

 

He's been out there for 4.5 years now and we've been living this weird existence where he is home once a month for a long weekend, and I used to sometimes go out there (until I got my chickens, not had a weekend away since!) - he has a tiny apartment in Gothenburg so it's been no fun for him, he's been working 7 days a week as there's nothing else to do - I think he's secretly quite pleased he's coming home, but also very worried as there's no work in what he does over here, and I don't work due to arthritis....

 

Anyway, we have to look on the bright side and think that he's coming home to me, the boys and the girls....(cats and chickens, no children!!)

 

I just spent the day booking flights and ferries. I shall fly out the day before, have a day's shopping in Gothenburg, then we will sail across to Denmark, drive through Denmark and then get the ferry from Esbjerg to Harwich and home from there. Mum and dad are coming down to cat/chicken sit! Landy's clutch is playing up so we just have to hope he holds out until we are back in blighty!

 

It'll be weird having him back full time and I think it'll get some getting used to on both our parts! The cats will be annoyed as he sleeps on their side of the bed

Ohhhhhhhhhhh good and not so good news for you!!!

 

It's lovely that you will all be a family again though, you must be very excited! have you warned all the animals that 'daddy' is comiing!!

 

Hope you all have a lovely reunion and that things go well for you all....

[Snowy]

Oooh, mixed news and mixed feelings Diane! It'll be lovely to have him home again (although it may take a bit of getting used to ), but with job worries too

If your parents need any support with the chicken sitting, feel free to shout me

[Egluntyne]

Fantastic news.....sorry to hear about the savings though.

Does this mean that you won't be coming to Harrogate?

Awww that's so sweet, thank you! My mum doesn't understand the chicken thing, dad pretends not to like them but when we are sat out on the patio having coffee, I note that he feeds them his biscuits (they love him now!!).....nearer the time, I'll take your 'phone number if that's ok, just in case there's a problem! I'm only away for three days so I'm hoping not too much can go wrong!!

Hee hee....he's not home until after Harrogate so what he doesn't see.....hee hee hee...my American friend who loves chickens is keen to come to Harrogate now so we may head northwards....thinking of that, do you fancy a trip to Harrogate, Snowy?

[The Dogmother]

Sorry to hear your rollercoaster news Diane. Am PMing you my number in case your folks have a chicken emergency and Snowy isn't about.

 

Take care.

[SarahJo]

Enjoy the re-union - its pants when OH's have to work away, and soooo many have to now. I make the most of "us" time - and stuff everyone else. I always think there is a stronger bond though, and more appreciation for what the other does.

 

Fingers crossed that he manages to get work again

[Mrs Frugal]

Oh wow, Diane, what a lot of ups and downs. It's good news that Mr Omletina will be home now and I hope he's able to find a good job in the UK so he's not away all the time any longer. Goodness, you'll have so many jobs for him to do round the house, won't you . Sorry to hear about the money loss . I hope things get sorted out.

 

You've got my number if your Mum has any problems and Snowy's not around as I'm only a few minutes away.

[Omletina Kyckling]

...I'm a bit emotional at the moment (ok, I'm always emotional, but I'm particularly emotional at the moment) and all these offers of 'phone support for mum and dad whilst I'm away is making me all choked up.

 

I just told mum on the 'phone about it and she was really touched, and also so pleased that I've made such lovely friends through my chickens....even though I've only met a few of you in person, I feel that I know you all! Better stop here as I'm getting choked up again....think I may head for a glass of wine!

[Mrs Frugal]

Sounds like a good enough reason

[Looney]

Pleased that your hubby is going to be around more. Sorry about the other stuff but hopefully all will come right in the end Get your Mum to join the forum and we can keep her and your Dad amused for a few days!!

[BERTIE MCSQUIRTY]

praying for you to win the lottery for a change of financial luck

Oooh, a big if over that one - I'd love too but OH is supposed to start a new shift system that day. IF by any chance it doesn't go ahead as planned, then I am free for the day!!! I'll keep you posted!

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Sorry to hear about your bad news but very happy for you that your OH is coming home .

 

Did you see this article about Kaupthing Isle of Man? It sounds a tiny bit hopeful .

 

We had money in Icesave so know a little of what you are feeling (but obviously now we're the lucky ones ).

[Lesley]

Sorry to hear the bad news part Diane - but great that you will back together again

[buffie]

We were apart for 7 years but did have most weekends together. Let's hope that this shock return signals some good times for you.

 

Enjoy each other, it's really strange when you first spend more time together

[Tiggy]

silver linings & all that, dosn't sound like you have had much fun the last 4.5 years with OH away so much, you never know he may get a better job 7 be able to stay at home more, pants about your savings

[Seagazer]

Good that you've got your husband coming home (well actually mine annoyed me last night talking all through a programme - I said to him "when you worked away it was great, I could watch a programme with no interruptions" not sure he appreciated it).

 

I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for him in the job stakes.

 

Sounds like you'll have a lovely time on his trip back home.
