New, Clear Decisions to be made!

Hey y'all! Its been a while but its been a crazy few weeks so I thought Id update quickly and post a full lowdown of events later!

In light of the recent nuclear tests we're in discussions about our future in Korea at the moment... the cash is nice, as is the lack of tax but its not really worth it if a nuclear bomb is iminent to be dropped in our faces now.

Reading today on the Guardian website, the US has proposed sanctions for NK to the UN and a 30 day deadline for action after the date it is agreed so that gives a minimum of about 2 months before anything could "really" go down if it was to go through... and knowing the UNs actions, they wont be any great rush to decide on a millitary solution, so personally I feel our only real threat to stability is Gee Dubya doing something stupid (these aren't odds I would be backing)...

In any case, it does feel a bit weird here now.. its always been a little questionable and unstable in this part of Asia, but it now feels even more so. So were coming up with a few plans to worst case scenarios, other plans for just in cases, or whether we want to just say balls to it and its not worth the risk.

Amys visa here runs out on the 5th November so she will have to either find a job, go on a day trip to Japan, or she'll be heading back to the UK in less than a month. Im sure a lot of you would like the later option so please get in touch and let us know your thoughts.. we're a little concerned were not getting the "full picture" on the news out here!

Whatever our decision is I will let you all know as soon as its set in stone! Image
