not sent TRA application yet, just waiting for agent to send a few bits back so we can get The ball rolling. and as for destination where thinking of the Brisbane area. but we've got a lot of decisions to make and would be good to get some advice from all of you.

Not sure we'd be any good as we originally thought we'd be going to Melbourne, but changed our minds and decided on Cleveland near Brisbane but have recently found out that there aren't really any beaches nearby so we're having to rethink. We originally wanted to be close to Stradbroke as we liked it.

I think we'll probably end up going to Brisbane next March, renting for a couple of months to have a proper look around and decide then. Plenty of other from Derbyshire who are moving to Brisbane, quite a few come on the nights out so you can talk to people about where they've been etc...

Cleveland is one of the areas that we've been looking at as well as he surrounding areas. we're looking forward o it so we can talk to others that have been to these areas and the visa application process and the dreaded house sale.

There are literally tons of places starting from the QLD / NSW border right up to the Sunshine Coast all with excellent links to Brisbane CBD. Plenty of beaches too

Excellent news your majesty, remember to "tell me what you want what you really really want" for your food order and I might even force myself to have a "ziga-zigaar" obviously accompanied by the dulset tones of the Bodyguard soundtrack
