Re: The Melbourne thread

Thanks for all your replies guys, I really appreciate it. We don't have to validate until the 21st Jan so think we'll leave it as late as possible so we don't have to "hang around" too long.

Re: The Melbourne thread

Hi guys,

Can anyone tell me whether it would be feasible to commute to the CBD from Seville? Roughly how long would it take - either driving or by train.

Thats what we keep saying - we're destined to move to Aus so things will just have to fall in to place. Just got to keep faith in the PMA (just some days are harder than others ;) )
