Finally Colombia Is On...

[england]

Ok well colombia is back on, handing my notice in at work in august,missus has the longest notice to give, we are going to buy two tickets for the 1st of october,,,,

so if anyones intrested in my current stock or tanks then make me any old offer and i shall see what i think, but keep it real..lol

I have found a great place two hours drive from medellin city centre,
check out these beauts of whats in the lakes...the lakes were man made..My first job when i arrive is to build my inlaws a lagre pond,the mother inlaw thinks goldfish are going in there,pfffft dont think so..iam going fish where these fish were caught..

I Have informed my family and everythings on track,got a months holiday in july which will be used to redo and rent my flat

 

[stang1]

Can I come!?!?!?
Sounds like it's going to be fantastic for you. Building a pond? Wow, that's going to have some spectacular fish in there!

 

[england]

course you can

Yes,it will take some time mind,have to find where i can get large filteration systems and things in a new city which dont care to much for keeping fish, i have already sourced/joined and found fish keepers in the city,so with there help

Dont worry i have also found two jobs to tied me over and my wife has lined up a job,we have property so good to go

 

[Big_eyes]

You jammy so and so!!

Will be amazing in every sense, good luck with it all and I hope it all goes well.

We plan on moving to italy once all the sprogs leave the nest, although I don't think I'll fish many nice cichlids over there as easily

 

[stang1]

Woohoo! Bags are packed ready....
Good luck to you Nelly, sounds like a great opportunity for you. Did have to lol at the fact that you've sourced fishkeepers, would've been one of my priorities too.
Are you still planning on posting on here once you've settled?

 

[england]

yes ofcourse,i know everyone thinks colombia is a third world country but,medellin is much more advanced than london

I have internet already in medellin so deffo...going to make you lot jelous..hehe sad isnt it that from my house in bournemouth i have managed to find well into double figures of fish keepers and fishermen in my new city..lmao

Glad you'll still be around, if only to make us jealous.
