People who have moved to the country from London

[CountessDracula]

What exactly is so much cheaper about living in the country to justify the massive salary cut you have to take when you move?

Food, clothes, schools etc the same price surely. Plus masses of petrol so that is more. If you are moving to an area where the house prices are not dissimilar to London, I can't see where you make the saving.

and i have spelles it wonrg ffs

Good god, everyone who thinks Brick Lane Bagels don't suck has to go to Montreal and have actual nice bagels.

How long has your DH been over, cod?

My accent has totally drifted, but only other Canadians, and my DH, can tell.

(Actually I think I might be confusing bagels with my youth)

I sometimes have to spell my surname.

It's Jones.

People suck.

NQC do Canadians really say "gee" or are you just affecting that to please us?

Aladdin and Wankee Bagles and the Magic Lamp

Ohhhhhh.

Now I see.

Your DH is Canadian in the way a friend of mine, who has British parents, and lived in Canada for her first 10 years, is Canadian. Probably even less Canadian than that.

Bet he doesn't even know what a zamboni is!

pmsl @ Wankee Bagles and the Magic Lamp

Um, I only use "gee" when I'm being sarcastic.

Don't think Canadians really say that.

But I'm all inauthentic after being here so long - I say "dude" all the time, and I'm not from California, and sometimes I uptalk? ... and I'm still not from California.

Actually, thinking about it, we say "gee" while being faux-ignorant, in a sarcastic way.

i remember the postcard

NQC, slightly off topic, don't know where you are in London but there's a fantastic bagel shop fairly near Arsenal football ground. I only know this because friends of ours who are Arsenal fans (well as we are chelsea fans we have to use the word friend very loosely to describe arsenal fans) specially make a trip to this bagel shop when they go and watch Arsenal play and they swear these bagels are the best around (so if you are near there, I can find out where it is).
