just a quick update.

my OH has been offered one of the jobs (the other ones still in the pipeline tho).
he's accepted it and it looks like we'll be moving over mid january.

its the one in bunbury WA, at little further south than where we wanted to be but thats fine.

the company are paying relocation expenses so thats a real big bonus :thumbsup: and they're also putting us up in one of their houses F.O.C for 3 months while we look for somewhere to live.

i just dont know where to start now - i keep coming on my computer thinking i'll research things like shipping companies and find myself on here or normally facebook :rofl:

any updates from anyone else?????

lisa
:thumbsup:

WOW! Brilliant news. Do keep us updated.

[F]Hey Sal'
Glad to see you are indeed living the dream.....Its blinkin freezin here brrrrr...!

For anyone still waiting on a bond resolution ive spoken to our agent yesterday who said (i know ive said it before) 2 states are near re-introduction, SA almost certain just a matter of the announcement to follow.

Sadly to little to late with a 20% house price drop and with the need to find the 43k investment means we have little chance. Hopefully others had the money in the bank like us 12 months ago....Hindsight there it goes again ;)

Hey ho ... nothing ventured nothing gained

Hope all on here are 'being lucky' in Oz and all still waiting will be real soon

Take it easy all and i will be expecting to reading enviously all of your first posts over the very different Christmas period:rofl:

Be Lucky Matt Rach n Ole:thumbup:

Pomerz- keep dreaming the dream.. one way or another you will get over here if that's what you really want.

We're feeling very lucky in Oz at the moment. $ months to the day since we landed and we're in our own house and have both (just) got jobs sorted out for next year (both teachers so we were looking for the next accademic year- working sh*tty supply posts at the mo.

Good luck to everyone making the move, try not the get overwhelmed, it all falls into place. Anyone coming to Melbourne, we'll be happy to show you around :)

Hell how exciting look at your new location....Location: Yarraville, West Melbourne


Green is not the word lol great to see you guys getting sorted for 2009 and having made the move things look to be on the up so happy teaching....:thumbup:

We are also on another rollercoaster as the 11+ looms large for our son in early January and if he gets in we wouldnt swap his place for 50 Australia's so all is not lost just yet.

One Grammer school 500 applicants 180 places and the boy finished in 101 in the mock so..... well just so......

Please all think good thoughts for him in January and if the lad pulls it off we will be the proudest parents ever and Adelaide will be a teary memory ;)

Take it easy and dont forget the sun scren grrrrrrr lol :sneaky: :thumbsup:

Good luck to your son- just get him to do loads of practice tests in exam conditions so he doesn't get too stressed on the day and he should be fine it's often nerves that make students perform worse than they should (I used to work in a Grammar so know a bit about this ;)) our fingers are firmly crossed for you.

Happy New Year Everyone! Not been on this site for about 6 months - not that we are deserting but left UK in August and have literally only just sorted out the net in our new Sydney home! God it's weird that some of you are still having a hard time selling houses, and poor pomerz - I really thought they'd have sorted this sh*t out by now how frustrated you must be!!! Well all is good here I just hope you all make it real soon - good luck to those of you still 'in progess' and hope the rest of you settle just as well as we are..... Take Care ;)
