Would love to hear from anyone in the Ayrshire or Glasgow region immigrating to Oz in the near future. Maybe a wee meeting could be organised. We are hoping to go to Perth in about 6 months time.

Will be nice to hear of other Scots in the area going to.

What age are you - are you going with family etc? Why Perth? What do you do for a living?

I am a nurse and hubbie a design engineer. We don't have kids but will be taking our dog Poppy.

Keep in touch!

Hi

There is nothing wrong with working in Asda - we need people like you just as much as the next person. Is your husbands occupation in demand in Perth? Will he have to do a TRA?

Well I'm a Killie supporter does that count?

Originally from Sunny Saltcoats by the sea & Mrs is from Irvine.
We have already gone through the process though & are now in Melbourne & loving it.

He has done the TRA and that has all been passed, we have sent police checks and medicals away so we are awaiting our visas. Dont know how long that will take? His company that he works for has one in Perth so he will get automatic transfer there, so that is half the battle. Long process but hopefully worth it.

Good to hear from a Killie fan, Glad to hear you are loving it, better weather than in Saltcoats.

Just a bit Carole, 38 yesterday & 35 tomorrow.
Beaches here don't have donkey rides on them like Saltcoats had though.
