The adventure begins
Well, after a number of years of thinking about it we have finally done it. OH has got his 457 visa and landed in Perth today. Can you believe he travelled all that way to find sunshine and it was raining on his arrival !! He has to do a couple of months probation before his employer will put the kids and I on his visa but in any case I finish work on Sunday so that I can look after the kids in the meantime. I'm not naive to think it will all be plain sailing and we will automatically get his employer to sponsor PR in a couple of years, but hey, you have to speculate to accumulate. These chances don't come around too often so you have to grab them when you can.................What's the worst that can happen ? If it doesn't work out we can always come back having had a good time trying. It's surely better than not trying at all. The adventure has begun, now waiting for OH to sort his internet access tomorrow so that he can keep me posted on what Perth holds for me and the kids in a few weeks.
