Default Bloody Hell - Got My Visa

On my way to work this morning I had a phonecall from my wife to tell me that my visa had arrived and my passport had been stamped, and bloody hell, by the love of Reg Grundy, it only took 2 weeks (front loaded spouses application). The only thing left now is to sell the house. I posted a week or so ago that we had accepted an offer on it, but unfortunately that fell through, and we have now moved to another agent. But, cross fingers, we could still be in Adelaide for Christmas if all goes well.

Can anybody recommend a good 'Floppy Hat with dangling Corks' supplier.

Hey, congratulations!

Isn't it a fabulous feeling - go out and celebrate - but leave the corks for the wine bottles!!!

Congrats, that's great news!!! Fingers crossed for your house.

We are in the same boat as you at the moment, my husband got his spouse visa last week and the house is on the market. We have had two offers but both couples have not sold thier own houses yet so we are still waiting...

Hoping to be back in OZ by Christmas!

Congrats Bluey

Nice to see that the Spouse Visas are being processed quickly as thats the way I intend to go.

All the best for the house sale and the move to Adelaide.

That's really funny, I got my husbands visa through the post this morning too!

Our house is on the market, and all we need to do is get a buyer, then we are off for good!

We are also heading for Adelaide, how weird, we want to be there by the end of this year too.

Well bugger me with scabby koala, thats some coincidence Jaz.
Not only do we live in the same town and street, we even live in the same house. Isn't life funny. Or perhaps you were referring to your other husband!

Congratulations Bluey

We also are heading off to Adelaide later in the year, when the house is sold (ours, not yours!)

Good luck

Hey Tina, what do you mean Zippy. The picture is me, honest, though I do admit a slight resemblance. Whenever you're in Adelaide look for the Zippy lookalike and Betty Boo. That'll be me and Jaz walking down the street. You cant miss us.
