2 - Female - have to nominate Larissa, who started the original Badger/wookie thread...... and has had me in fits more than once!

5 - Ceri - though I'm sure she'd view it as realistic, not pessimistic? Or Wilf......?!!

11) Bondipom - always on the case for spouse/partner visas, as well as a wide range of other stuff -
or MrsDagboy - a mine of info on the subject of Queensland, and Brissie in particular

Perhaps we should have 2 categories - Visa info and Lifestyle info??

14 & 15 - have to agree with Badger there!

That'll do for starters!
