Default aus high commission london

Could anyone give me any information on how to talk to
somebody at the australian high commission in London on the phone. All we keep getting is to go to the website which is of no use.

Also can you use a British driving license in Queensland.

Hoping to be in brisbane by july.

Yes you can, not a bad idea to get a UK photo licence before coming to serve as ID until you have some established here. If you are on a temporary visa you can use throughout duration, otherwise will need to get a QLD licence after three months (or be fined and unable to drive).

Thanks for that Liz and Mark. Earlier I found out that that your advice is exactly correct. It took 35 minutes to get through.
