Not a problem.

Beding is a little more expensive here for your normal size bed but not worth worying about in your case as I uimagine that Superking beding is very expensive in the UK.

The only thing I should add is the beds here might be and inch or so longer.

I bought my king size bed with me and when I got here bought I new bedroom suite with a queen bed, my Uk matress is about 2 inches shorter than the bed but it makes no diference to me and my Uk king bedding and AU queen bedding fit both beds fine
