    I'd venture a guess that the government isn't great in most countries :D Good luck with the vote! Already have an idea of who to vote for?

    Let's hope they can make a difference then! I've got to check out who I'm going to vote for in the upcoming EU elections. Unfortunately my choices are limited to my country. It'd be cool if I could vote for a German politician or something because ours just suck.

    Congrats !!

    Glad to hear you good me.... ok, busy as hell, so less time on the forums and internet (unless work related)

    Eldon know what you mean on goverments being epically bad! why the hell we are entering the EU elections in 2 weeks never know but its going to be carnage for the main parties in many countries. Career polticians not listening to public is spurring on populist parties or ordinary business folk who are fed up with careerist politicians. I seem to think UK is had enough of our useless politicians, as seen in local elections that hit the main parties and lower turnout as folk think why vote if your elected are not going to enact what you voted for.

    Thanks for the congratulations :)

    @DavidGP: Same here! Quite busy, new career, kid that's 1,5 years old now and tearing stuff up. Surprising how much energy they can have and you don't :D

    It's not either of those who I'd consider voting for. Rather a more local politican from just across the border. Unfortunately I can't as, even though we're supposed to be about open borders and whatnot, I'm Dutch and he's German.

    Isn't that the truth! He can also be very stealthy if he wants to. Most of the time he doesn't want to and goes around the area shouting "IS?" because he wants to know what's what, but when he wants to, he can sneak right up on you.
    Also, I thought you'd have to pay attention when they're being loud, but turns out you have to pay extra attention when it's quiet. The mischief happens when it's quiet :D

    I have to say that this is probably the best arrangement. Enjoy having kids and what they're up to, but not having to deal with poopy diapers and potty training :D
